we need to figure out a way to get the media's attention. But I have no idea how. It would be nice if a rich, progressive benefactor came along to purchase a media company, but it seems even when do, they become absorbed into the oligarchy and turn on us. Democracy Dies in Darkness becomes, "FU, America."
Charles, the media is well aware of what is happening. The people who work in media have family, friends and insider sources who have been terminated during these dark days.
That being the case, you have to ask yourself why the non-Fox news networks aren't 24/7 in 'BREAKING NEWS! DEMOCRACY IS DYING IN THE U.S!' mode, instead of bending over backward to portray the slaughter of freedom as akin to normal politics.
Before the first reign of TraitorTot the press pointed and laughed at him because he was an unserious candidate. He won, but through a lack of planning and incompetent action, he failed to implement the Christian Nationalist agenda the Fundies paid him to do.
This time, those Fundies created a plan, recruited the soldiers to implement that plan, then ensured that King TraitorTot 2 would be in place to enable their coup.
The press watched this happen, while by and large ignoring the inevitable result, because 'ratings'.
MSNBC tells it like it is, pretty much around the clock.
My anxiety level increases when I watch their news... I also found small local tv station has a 6am Richard French Live which has a Thom Hartmann segment. Really good info from Thom Hartmann, is on sub stack as well. Follow him!!
tRump is following the Nazi playbook of subjecting news stations ( back then it was publications in print) to never ending lawsuits to bankrupt them seems to put all the other news syndicates in line w tRump or silences them out of fear. Unfortunately MAGAites are told where to get their info, &obey accordingly. So, until it affects them personally,they probably won't care.
This needs to be ALL OVER THE NEWS EVERYWHERE
