Local U.S. TV News Will Soon Be Entirely Right Wing Propaganda
Thanks to the destruction of media consolidation limits, Republicans will soon enjoy propaganda and market domination over what's left of local U.S. news.

The goal isn’t to replace the work of humans. It’s to make a case for its devaluation.

This thought has been on my mind a lot over the past six weeks. And it’s not just people on the right. Sacrificing basic values in the name of winning is among the things he’s given permission to everywhere. So is the revival of “it’s ok to hurt women if you can win.”

This is bone-chilling. A conservative hedge fund manager wants to require little girls to pass genital inspections for their “safety.” And it’s only for girls’ sports. There’s a clear link between transphobia and child sexual abuse.

So many people insisted that Graham Platner was just a growing boy who couldn’t be held responsible for a Nazi tattoo and some bad behavior in relationships and the Democrats are so desperate to appeal to white men who they will never sway that they will tolerate this raggedy ass man.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

The seizure of ballots in Fulton County, Georgia follows the DOJ’s demands for voter data in Minnesota.

There is no attitude for which legacy journalists are more often rewarded by their bosses than "Everybody needs to calm down." It is a preening announcement that you are the adult in the room, immune from emotion or overreaction or "hysteria." And it is the worst imaginable priority for this era. >
