The truth is that Conservatives are as much to blame for the modern media as the corporations and leftists taking them over.
The media had to maintain some semblance of honesty and some reporters DID try to report honestly about the Iraq war propaganda. Some politicians as well.
There people were shouted down with your "war correct" buzzwords like "patriot" or "coward" or "constitution" or phrases like "defend our freedoms(predictable how it turned out)"
Conservatives did the same thing leftists are doing now, the only difference is that there are no honest conservatives or even truthers in the media anymore, they were punished for trying and got out or were fired. Thus, the lesson is that if you go against the prevailing thought, you will be punished by society.
What we need is for someone to sue one of the tech companies because of something someone else posted, appeal to the SCOTUS, and let them interpret the rule vis-a-vis whether Twatter/fakebook/etc are editors or platforms. Its clear they are platforms, they just need a case to rule on, which will open the floodgates for additional lawsuits. Death by 1000 paper cuts for them.
freedom of big media. small journalists who are actually journalists, and not fan fic writers who occasionally copy paste word docs from their handlers onto the website and put their name on it, regularly get oppressed. obama killed lots of them too.
"My colleagues want less censorship, I want more" - that statement needs to be plastered everywhere.
