The mass media doesn't get enough hate for normalizing this shit. And I am not talking about just Fox News here. Every major news outlet is complicit in getting Trump elected.
Giving out free passes to Republicans, while holding Democrats to impossibly high standards.
All true. But for the rest of us, it's important to remember that we have done the same thing. Chalk it up to influence from a negligent media, or believe the media merely reflects what the vaunted "people" really want. But the people are culpable, and that is the thing that the people can change.
The problem is more the owners and editors who are compromised by Trump and MAGA. Many journalists want to report fairly, but writing a story that won't get published is pointless.
I don't know about anyone else, but I grew up and lived most of my life being told that a "free press" would protect us from authoritarianism, safeguard our liberties. What a fucking crock that turned out to be. They've got a hundred reasons, but in the end our noble journalists failed miserably.
Just cancel your subscriptions to these propaganda networks and breath the fresh clean air of freedom and facts, where opinion gets the attention it deserves..........none.
