re: AOC says the govt needs more control over the press

Why should a radio station or other new outlet have programming that nobody listens to, watches, or reads?

Programming that nobody listens to will not bring in add dollars and will fail.


The point is that currently we have a huge thing called the media and it has a massive impact on our lives and it has a vested interest in dividing us by only giving one side of a story.

It is a huge reason why this country is so divided and people are going postal.

I think we need to evaluate what we consider the purpose of “media” and the impact of “news”

Listening to Rachel Maddow drone on about the evils of conservative thought is not good for anyone.
Listening to hannity only talk about how great Bush is does no one any good and it’s why Republicans get sucked into voting for losers like Romney and Jeb Bush and McCain.
