hate, set and maintain the desired cynical narrative, write hit pieces while protecting the likes of HRC(murder of Ambassador) & others, and then everyday show disdain and hatred for the President.

I am aware we all have know this for years, but I never could understand how these news companies could keep operating with profit while having a terrible product.

Now it is easy to see how those news agencies and journalists were actually making money. It still stood out that the lack of quality news reporting should not result in "Good Job"extra pay. Using USAID and many other agencies by the left created a complex way to use taxpayer funds to buy off reporters and pay for special treatment. An unlimited amount of taxpayer money.

It sure seems these miss use of tax payer funds ought to be criminal, but at a minimum; every reporter on the take needs to be outed with the payoff amount. Secondly, verify that the taxes paid on those pay-offs.

Yep, I have often wondered how some of these news companies even stayed in business. Now we know that they had a Govt. revenue stream that kept them profitable and in business.

Cut them all off and let us watch them collapse into bankruptcy. That is what they deserve. Enjoy some popcorn.

They chose easy money and lies over doing the actual work. Now they need to pay for that choice.

Stop consuming their products. It's the only way.

Imagine the world we could have if our media were honest...Not even biased toward the right, just honest. We would be a mostly conservative nation if that were the case.

or put another way if we had honest fair elections i don't know that a democrat would hardly ever win. between the 300 year old dead people collecting social security and you know voting democrat and illegals voting democrat they have cheated at a scale that is on par with the money they have laundered. we are a conservative country that has been manipulated to believe we are more liberal than we are.

Never forget that Biden wanted to remove all responsibility of journalists having to pay personal taxes if you were employed in that industry. Literally paying off your propaganda arms on top of USAID.

It was baked into GND version one before it was killed by Manchin.

Let us not forget our favorite Texas paper (Texas Tribune) gets the most cash for a newspaper in Texas.

Yes. Our media is the most criminal and destructive to the national interests enterprise at the present. They more than any other are responsible for the break down of political discourse. Keep an eye on msn.com and Quora --- notice how they continue to sow the very slanted pro Left angles and undermining, and never seeming to acknowledge that Liberals too, voted for Trump's reforms of the government this time.

That's going to be a big change. The majority of right-leaning news is about what the left has said. Fox News, News Max will have to focus exclusively on all the wins on the right and the corruption on the left without showing screaming liberals over and over again in every news segment. Same with forums like F16.
No, I don't care what CNN or MSNBC said this time

I feel like there may be some "consolidation " coming in the media world.

You are correct but way to easy on them. They straight up deserve the worst that can be legally conceived.

The founders entrusted the press to play a watch dog roll regarding government. In the last 50 years the watch dogs have been wolves. F* them all.

It's a 2 pronged approach to destroy the MSM. DOGE is taking out USAID and RFK is going to kill pharmaceutical advertising which is the majority of their revenue. In the meantime X is only getting stronger and is able to absolutely humiliate the MSM with fast response and community notes such as what happened to CBS on Sunday.

Day by day the MSM becomes less and less relevant.

Yes, watching the MSM crumble, right before our eyes, is a thing of beauty!

MSM credibility is shot, CNN is on life support and all the other networks are winding down.

Only people that watch them or pay attention is hardcore libs or old people.

Trump basically killed them, Elon is finishing off whatever doubt is left.

There are actually quite a few conservatives who watch but only to be outraged by it. It's like the Howard Stern movie when they talked about ratings.
