And nobody, I mean nobody, mentions this. Disney, Comcast, Time Warner (AT&T), and Viacom are largely/ultimately responsible for the malevolent MSM. It’s their properties. And yet, nobody gives a damn.

I mention it constantly. It dominates my conversations on virtually every website on which I post. The current liberal media monopoly is a threat to the nation, and it needs to be broken apart.

We need to destroy liberal control of the broadcasting system in America.

>> I mention it constantly

Well then, that makes ‘just the two us.’

I’m not big on breaking corporations apart — in a fair and competitive market, they’ll break and reform on their own as a consequence of an informed consumer base — however, the consumers are not informed.

You make a great point regarding broadcast — those frequencies are leased ultimately by the citizens.

No doubt you’ve noticed that the likes of Gingrich, Hannity, Rush, Levin, et al only speak to the wicked MSM. No mention is ever made about the controlling parent companies. It’s pathetic, and I find it hard to take them seriously when all they do is bemoan the MSM minions.

There’s an article I found here a couple of days ago. It correctly speaks to the AT&T Time Warner merger that’s been a factor for months now. The second article from the Hill was published 3 weeks ago.

AT&T should punt CNN — else, every conservative subscriber should punt AT&T.

Trump’s pick to lead antitrust division raises concerns over vertical mergers

BY HARPER NEIDIG - 05/30/17 11:41 AM EDT

President Trump’s nominee to run the Department of Justice’s antitrust division said that vertical mergers, such as the proposed AT&T-Time Warner deal, can “raise competitive concerns.”
