Does anybody still believe we have a truly "free press" in this country?

This Epstein/ABC stuff just further proves that it's one big Globalist Cabal.

They're evil, from the AP to CNN and everything in between.

It depends what you mean.

I don't think they are being forced to report they way that they do by government. I just think they are owned and operated by activists.

Democracy depends on a Free and Honest press.
We have the free part, but not many are Honest.

Found this quote intriguing while viewing a Free Press exhibit in the National Museum of American History in D.C.

quote:

Newspapers free from government control seemed essential for citizens to be well informed about public affairs. But newspapers changed dramatically in the 1790s, when America became deeply divided over both foreign and domestic issues. Colonial papers had declared themselves to be above party politics. Now many newspapers became frankly partisan, presenting only one side of every issue, denouncing anyone who disagreed, sometimes printing rumors about the personal lives of the political opposition. What if privately controlled media misinformed the public about issues that voters needed to understand?

Oh...they’re free.

Free to write any shitty propaganda they want.

The problem isn’t that they’re free, but rather that they’re biased.
