Yeah...this is the kind of strength and fortitude we can expect for the next 2 years...ball-less wonders.

“McConnell caves . . .”

I never saw this coming.

[Antoninus]

Given that McConnell is a UniParty hack, this is a dog-bites-man story. I have no expectation that the GOPe will do anything but support the status quo post-Constitutional oligarchy.

The Chinese have his balls in a locker in Beijing.

[cranked]

And when you think your vote matters....../s

[budj]

Gotta get along

[Ingtar]

We have met the enemy and he is us.

[ronnie raygun]

DITCH MITCH

[dragonblustar]

Bloated face bastard needs a boot up his arse. I truly despise this greedy, back stabbing traitor!!!

[Captain Peter Blood]

So this bill is going to prop up failing newspapers? Or is it something else?

[Chgogal]

McConnell is a Mealy Mouthed Spineless Useless Moronic Parasitic Sleazeball of a Republican.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

How do you cave...when you are on the same side?

[rigelkentaurus]

McConnell did not cave. McConnell is a key member of the Uniparty. The Uniparty wanted this, so McConnell wanted this. No cave was necessary.

[bray]

The guy could not even last 30 days until a new speaker is nominated.

[stockpirate]

Fake headline, McConnel supports this bill cover to cover, no caving involved

[glennaro]

McConnell is properly described as a spelunker .... he excels at caving.

So this bill is going to prop up failing newspapers? Or is it something else?

As I understand it:

It is to protect the old dominant media from going bankrupt by losing subscribers.

It sort of consolidates the old, dominant media as a part of the government by making them paid for with tax dollars.

So this bill is going to prop up failing newspapers? Or is it something else?

It's a tough call. In theory this will force the social media companies to pay the news organizations when they serve up the media's stories.

As it is, the socials get hugely rich off of others' content and don't spread the wealth.

Lots of people here seem to be rooting for Twitter, Google and Facebook - which is...a change.

[JBW1949]

Exactly!!!!!!!
