Correct. They need to be destroyed.
To understand who they are, however, is key: they do NOT need “profits” to survive. They don’t need viewers to survive. They are supported, just as the papers in Andrew Jackson’s time were, by the Dem Party. 100%. It may be funneled in through other corporate kickbacks, but however it comes in, it’s not because people VIEWING them like their message or even like their advertisers.
So the goal is to take out the sugar daddies & corporations subsidizing them, to make them squeal so badly they must cut the “news” organizations loose. This can happen, but it will take a dedicated offensive to strategically destroy advertisers and bombard them with lawsuits until they just leave.
Interesting - glad I asked!
