The fact that they’re broadcasting an entire Trump press conference while Democratic elected officials are trying to get into the USAID building which was shut down by Musk shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Media. “Keep in mind, The news media are not independent; they are sort of a bulletin board and public relations firm for the ruling class-the people who run things. Those who decide what news you will or will not hear are paid by, and“ tolerated purely at the whim of, those who hold economic power. If the parent corporation doesn’t want you know something, it won’t be on the news. Period.. “

Had this conversation last night at dinner. Every point started with something to the effect that "Democrats need to go on TV and..." fill in the blank. Tried to point out that the mainstream media does not provide a forum for Democrats so they can't just "go on TV and..."

Not sure anyone really grasped the problem.

People still yell about the "left wing media" as if that's been a thing since Reagan. They are very far from understanding

@Strandjunker The media is complicit and has betrayed the American people. We need to burn it to the ground.

@Strandjunker we need to turn them off. Watching is $ for them to continue. They’re fascist, they’re not going to stop. They need to be torn down just like they’ve helped tear down everything in America.
