well, being a newbie :) you don’t remember the old days where there was a Free Republic Media Chapter. We worked on GE to persuade them to curtail the biased news coverage on NBC
We had 500 Freepers that were on the chapter roles and were activists to bring attention to the bias and attempt to bring it to an end. We failed of course but did develop awareness.
We wrote jack and all the board a lot and got blather in return.
It was always a mystery to me why he wouldn’t change or get rid of NBC. It always was a loser and Jack is not a full fledged moonbat
Look, GE is not some one man fifedom - CEO still has to work through channels. This is not like CNN, which Ted Turner founded and owned. Totally different. Dow Jones company. Directors. Divisions. Contracts signed with companies as they acquired them that might prevent divestiture.
You’re over simplifying what is a very tangled web....
