The problem is that a publication that’s more ideologically left-wing than the NYT wouldn’t be electorally helpful to Democrats — the genius of Fox is that it’s highly partisan but not very ideologically interested in pushing Republicans to affirm far-right stances.

You could stand up a muscular, progressive competitor to the NYT/WSJ/WaPo for less than a half-day's worth of advertising for the the Kamala Harris campaign.

Maddow is a good story teller. But beyond her, it's the domain of fox on linear TV
Why do you?
The gop has ordered all the brown shirts to say it and repeat it. Some are innovative in their goose stepping.. others are very clumsy
She covers deeper topics often... Things we need to learn, think about
Fake!
Showing trends, data, and arguing using anything that is not tangible will quickly go over the heads of most people.
Most people cannot use abstractions when thinking.
The obvious reason is the bullshit to information ratio is way too high.
But another reason is that it feels like I’m jumping into the middle of a long form television series with no idea who the characters even are.
As you stated they aren't reporters.
Editorial pieces were biased by the presenter.
Used to watch that years ago and thought wow, what a great idea…what a scary thought, that I was that sold on those three words. 😔
I apologize to all my friends…😣Thanks goodness I’m on the good side! Thanks Marc!
What Fox does is closer to marketing, as it aims at a way less ambigues reproduction of thought, interpretation and therefore behavior. They sell “Heroisms”
Cover the facts! To the core on issues, doesn't mess around!
By the way "Lev" was another documentary on MSNBC re Russian influences and dRump..
Eye opening!
Excellent documentaries in last 5 wks.. Separated & Sing, Sing about prisoners jailed for decades who weren't guilty. We can't look away at unpleasant things that we as Americans do..
They will probably repeat those
It’s easy to manipulate, and profit off of, stupid.
I don't understand why that couldn't be done.
And they still do it, it's just ideology has been replaced with allegiance to Trump.
And the focus of the piece is on buying up local papers that are struggling financially - not creating a new behemoth as the commenter suggests
Republicans have launched brutal attacks on public schools and Bidens wife who is a teacher HAS SAID NOTHING.
It’s most important that it’s good and popular.
How often did they call out R's who were squishy on abortion?
How does Matt have a job telling people lies about politics?
the time being Nov 6th
Everything goes back to Bernie losing in 2016.
Also they did push abortion until 2023 as well, paused only after referendum losses.
