the sudden onset of the coronavirus pandemic has only accelerated these trends, and more and more places are becoming news deserts, without dedicated journalists to investigate corruption, tell local stories and document communities’ histories,” he said.

The Eastsider's "dedicated journalists" need this funding to continue reporting on very important local stories...like these:

A desert can be quite a beautiful place, Mr. Scheisse.

It’s incredible to me that not only can these people lie, but they can tell you the exact opposite of reality, and do it without flinching.

The man should be at the end of a rope.

Adam Shitt with the cleverly gerrymandered district actually “represents” (ignores) the natural more-conservative base at the core of his district

but at any event, he has so thoroughly disgraced his office with his campaign of “impeachment” lies... that he simply must be retired ASAP

why in H can’t the Californication Republican Party get its act together? Schitt is eminently beatable if only the R’s would pick a salable candidate and re-learn how to campaign, a skill they abandoned several decades ago in favor of playing golf and basking in the sunshine

Why don’t we start looking into corruption in your district Mr. Schiff. Just one less news desert to start with.

Schriff is the most corrupt POS political I have ever seen.

He lies every time he opens his mouth and expects to get away with it.

He should be followed around by old ladies with heavy hand bags and lambasted every time he talks until he learns to STFU or tell the truth.

Schiff — “without dedicated journalists to investigate corruption”

Where to start looking for corruption? Where should we start?

Schiff isn’t very self-aware.

So it works this way. Young “dedicated journalist” hits the scene running to root out corruption. Finds plenty but most of it’s democrats. Is given plenty of money, other considerations, or a job for life to stay quiet. The young journo only prints dem approved articles. His original research is saved by the dems in case they need it later to blackmail their guilty pols who may stray off the plantation.

When they use such liberal terms it means they intend to take action. In this case it means ‘government propagandist reporters’.

That’s what you can get away with when you have complicit press outlets covering for you. Goebbels would be so pleasantly surprised to see that his invention has been adopted by the MSM press outlets in the U.S.
