The news will get better. CNN and MSNBC layoffs starting next week.
In all honesty it doesn't affect me. I don't even have cable. I stream sometimes, but usually just to validate the reason why I cut the cord. The future of media is not on cable or over the air.
With that said, hopefully it affects others that are too lazy to see alternative news sources. Conservatives need cut the cord and stop buying from advertisers on main stream media. Their back needs to be broken. This is a transitional period where new information sources are being built on alternative platforms, e.g, not YouTube, and in the process the old media should be at least marginalized if not sent out of business. The latter is quite possible because these companies are so large, have huge capital investments, and debt to repay that they are not agile enough to survive compared to alternative media which is already on a shoestring budget.
