glenn greenwald compares fox news to state propaganda

msnbc al sharpton admitted he wasnt going to criticize obomba

its propaganda. the business model doesnt work, the system doesnt work. we need protests to shut it down and build something new.
Nothing will change until advertisers demand the broadcasting of truthful and accurate information. Even if it comes at the expense of viewership. Right now all they care about is reaching the largest number of consumers at the lowest possible cost. The broadcast network and program content means nothing to the advertiser. Right now big bang for small bucks is all they care about.

Back in 1987 a bill passed in Congress called the Fairness Doctrine. A bill that required broadcasters to tell all sides of an issue from all vantage points....Reagan vetoed it and Congress failed to override it....That's when what you see today got underway.

Glenn Greenwald is on Tucker Carlson's show all the time.

As opposed to closeted liberals back in the day like Walter Cronkite only allowing stories that were critical of military spending and other conservative supported institutions but not allow stories critical of welfare and other liberal supported programs.

i think glenn is honest. the networks need more honesty and good journalists, not half rates on tv all the time.

wheres chris hedges? ralph nader? chomsky?
Doesn't matter. You used an example who is either a hypocrite or diet actually say what you said he did.

No Ricky, welfare drove fathers out of the home. As long as a man wasn't present in the home single mothers could get more welfare by having more babies.

Does that include the fathers who abandoned their kids and their mothers? My county government publishes the names and sometimes the photos if they have them of all the child support absconders they have warrants out for in an effort to try to track them down. And you would be surprised at the number of them....who are women.

So you're trying to tell me that Reagan a born again dyed in the wool conservative vetoed the Fairness Doctrine just so Walter Cronkite who retired from CBS 6 years earlier could continue with your so called "liberal bias"?

Oh, BTW. Whatever happened to Trump and his so called TRUTH Social platform? To find the answer all you have to do is to take a look at what happened to DWAC the SPAC that Trump partnered with. 3/02/22 stock price....$101. 2/16/23 stock price....$14. EPS... Negative $31 a share.

Without the Fairness Doctrine he could and can continue to say whatever he wants provided that he can get enough people to believe what he says.....And judging by the numbers it would appear that there are not many who do.
