I keep trying to make people understand that we need to stop playing games and start treating the media-weapon-system as the threat that it is.

We need to be trying to break liberal control of mass communications.

“We need to be trying to break liberal control of mass communications.”

So true. It’s bad enough for decades most all newspapers have been so liberal (even in small towns) and, of course, network TV. But now with everyone online, people are being saturated with liberal voices every hour.

I don’t have the money to do it, but wish some wealthy conservatives would somehow start a giant competitor to Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. I don’t think Gab has enough followers at the moment, and who knows if they ever will. But as you said, something needs to be now!

....”We need to be trying to break liberal control of mass communications”......

Media is Internationally controlled ..from owners to share holders, investors and the like. So I don’t see how it’s even possible to break those footholds without others ‘like them’ stepping into the gap.

Globally, large media conglomerates include Bertelsmann, National Amusements (Viacom Inc. and CBS Corporation), Sony Corporation, News Corp, Comcast, The Walt Disney Company, AT&T Inc., Fox Corporation, Hearst Communications, MGM Holdings Inc., Grupo Globo (South America) and Lagardère Group.

As of 2019, 90% of the ‘United States’s media’ is controlled by five media conglomerates: Comcast (via NBCUniversal), Disney, Viacom & CBS (both controlled by National Amusements), and AT&T (via WarnerMedia).
