In reply to the discussion: Worthless CNN. Viewership implodes. Conservative Rightwing Slant Turning Viewers Away Even More Now [View all]hadEnuf
(3,355 posts)83. Yes, but at this point, either way, whether it's the government
or corporations, we are still getting nothing but subversive propaganda from the media in a dominating way.
Individual speech is always there and has been. But manufactured propaganda lies presented as actual truth with little to no rebuttal taking over media is not okay because of free speech. The only way to counter that would be to create a whole new media empire to say the opposite of what the other side says. That's not free speech, that's a pissing match with democracy hanging in the balance. And we do have the world's billionaires stepping up for us to make it happen either.

Honestly, I listen more than watch when it on, so I am less aware of that nonsense.

I couldn't believe MSNBC ('Moron Joe and Mika) had Tapper on the other day to interview for his new book.
