Don’t expect members of my profession to track down the story. We’re too busy listening to Donald Trump berate NATO, lie about his investments, revive the Red Scare and call Iranian leaders “scum,” while at the same time declaring we’ve defeated Iran in a war everyone believes we shouldn’t have started in the first place. (For those keeping track, Trump has claimed he has ended the conflict close to 40 times. I can’t count how often he’s “completely obliterated” the Islamic Republic’s military, even though they keep firing missiles and sending drones against us.)

Money gets you media companies. Media companies get you power. Which gets you money...

I guess my point was that I don't really think these decisions are motivated by increasing profit to the media companies. That they're happy to take a loss in this one investment to further their other goals.

Agreed. If I can make billions fracking and it costs me millions to shift the narrative for enough people to get my bill passed I'm still making tons of money.

Most of us want the same things, just some of us have completely ingested lies and half truths the news spews. They legitimately believe all leftists want Marxist communism across the world.
