re: Nothing highlights how far the Media has fallen more than the Milley story

The same people behind the press are the same people who have wrestled control over corporate America, it is no longer about profits. Look at all of the giant companies basically saying frick you to their own customers.

This is why the press was demonized in 1930s Germany - because they had been complicit in the humiliation and degradation of their country. Same thing has been happening for decades here now.
Yep. We accepted many of the same fine folks who did that to Germany, and surprise....they are doing the same things here.

IMO the "free market" doesn't exist anymore in the realm of transfer of information and journalism.
It's a very scary proposition and one that should be taken more serious by citizens IMO. But most of them seem disengaged and happy to accept whatever "facts" about whatever "story" these outlets deem relevant to share.

Every person both former and current who served in the military should be pissed that Milley would give an enemy information of an attack to a foreign nation...that information would put military personnel lives in danger because the enemy already knew and prepared

I think you may be missing the long-game picture here, and the idea that "profits" will likely be something quite different than what we've traditionally understood once they reach the ultimate goal here (if they haven't already).

The free market actually makes the media like this.
People don't want to hear independent news. That's the reality of things - people want to hear things that conform to their world view.

The free market makes most of the mainstream media the mouthpiece of the DNC?
Couldn’t be anything else.

There are plenty of mainstream news channels for right-wing people.
Fox News exists because of the free market. Fox News and that OANN channel exist because the free market. Are you saying that Fox News is not a right-wing channel or that it's not mainstream?

The MSM is infested with an assortment of anti-American Communist, LGBT activist, and abortion loving baby killers. And I'm being generous.
They could teach the Nazis' a few things about running a Holocaust.

That's what happened to Krystal Ball at MSNBC. She quit because they ordered her to be a propagandist.

Stfu. 90% of news is controlled by Democrat globalists

What part of viewership numbers do you not understand?
The viewership of left-wing voters is split between different news channels while the viewership of right-wing voters is to one channel. Fox News gets a lot more viewers than CNN or MSNBC for example.
If a similar number of people are being exposed to right-wing and left-wing voters, I fail to understand what's causing you trouble here?
The free market determines that left-wing voters want more channels (perhaps because left-wing voters are more ideologically split) while right-wing voters want one channel where they get their news.

Your incoherent rambling is causing trouble.
I see you moved to viewership numbers when you realized I was correct.
But you conveniently left off the other msm outlets such as newspapers.
Typical progressive tactic.
Again, most of the msm is your Pravda. I don’t know why you people don’t just admit it and revel in it. It’s a huge advantage.

I didn't think you were correct at all. You focused on TV alone in your comment and that's clearly not all media. Most newspapers actually lean Conservative in my experience (local newspapers tend to lean Conservative) as well as plenty of pro-business papers as well.
quote:

Newspapers are ideologically more Conservative. The WSJ for example definitely isn't left-wing (it tends to lean business conservative). There are more papers that lean Conservative that I can name compared with left-wing. Most local papers will lean Conservative in their output as well.
Think about the demographic that read papers. Older white people read newspapers - that's a Conservative demographic so papers tend to cater to them.
You also conveniently left off other outlets like radio as well which is heavily Conservative.
quote:

No, because you failed to understand the point being made doesn't make it incoherent. The fact of the matter is there are lots of media outlets that lean conservative either economically or socially. You narrowly focused on TV while you ignored newspapers.
From the WSJ and the Economist (which tend to be conservative economically) to channels like Fox News and online news papers read by a lot of Americans (the Daily Mail is one of the most popular non-US sites read by Americans and it tends to lean Conservative).
And even on TV, it's not the number of channels that matter. It's their viewership - the Fox News channel gets far more viewership hence has more impact.

You are going to believe what you want.
You voted for a guy with dementia after all.
That’s a lie. I never focused on tv. I said msm.
Local newspapers. Lol. Too funny
Now do the large ones
You don’t even believe your own eyes.
Typical progstain.
