The value of a news media is clear when billionaires want to take it over and shut it down. Whatever targets this administration is aiming at. we know that they are quite valuable to us. Voting in the midterms is quite a target. Anything they’re doing that would affect our knowledge of the truth or our ability to vote requires our immediate attention.

How is the US ever gonna get out of this? This is so controlled money. People with money can rule the world apparently and it’s so sad for the US to turn into this because Donald Trump doesn’t really have enough brains to do this obviously project 2025 is a big leader in taking over the US and it’s disgusting and it’s sad.

Why don’t the CNN journalists leave CNN and create their own independent media outlet instead of being under tRump’s thumb?!

With what resources? Who's going to fund it? I'm one of the lucky few who can afford to opt out of "free" media and pay for independent journalism, but I'm atypical. What we need is a funding system for journalism that is independent of governments and corporations.

Yes Cindi, every time a fundraising message pits me against a billionaire, and they come 50 times a day, my thoughts run along the lines you mention.

YES! I ALWAYS WATCH ERIN BURNET OUTFRONT ON CNN! I WILL JUST WATCH PBS NEWS, MSNOW The Rachel Maddow Show, The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell, Stephanie Rule, ABC News with David Muir, Brian Tyler Cohen Podcasts, Left Nation, Dan Rather Steady, Indivisible!

Totally agree Robin. If everyone at CNN and CBS quit and walked out right now, and then started on the road to establishing a new news outlet, it would be a great news story all on its own.

Only if you choose to watch these twats. Unsubscribe. It's simple. Control what you control. Don't pay them.

This is unpleasant news for legacy media consumers. Fortunately, there is an ongoing decline in viewers of legacy output. Except for the occasional scripted drama and local news, even my 88 year old mother doesn't watch these broadcast or cable stations anymore. She gets her news from independent journalists and commentators, and foreign organizations (BBC, CBC etc.) on streaming platform - can't trust American corporations to provide accurate and valid information. Hopefully, this type of consolidation will be dealt with by a Democratic administration in the coming years.

Don't trust the BBC any more. They have a new head, very right wing zionist., who took over to redress their supposed "left wing bias" after CunTrump sued them for £10 million.

They want to control us. Kinda reminds me of N. KOREA! 😠

Didn't Trump tell us he wanted "his people" to rule him, only?

We are witnessing the Death of Truth in real time. It's being reborn as The Ministry of Truth a la 1984. I guess this proves the adage that 'most people prefer being lied to', especially when the truth causes existential crisis.

I hate it here. But please, keep telling me the truth!

Trump & HIS CRONIES SUCK.

70% of Americans are NOT the enemy! Trump’s enemy is the Constitution and rules of law. Annnnd, honesty.

Ray Rochelle's avatar
