I’ve been trying to tell people this for a long time. The “free” press isn’t really free and hasn’t been for a very long time. I think the government basically gained meaningful control of it before WWII.
I guess it’s not quite as bad as the CCP’s CCTV etc but it still isn’t free. It should be blatantly obvious now with the whole blackout on Hunter Biden and Tony Bobulinski.
The press hasn't been free since the Civil War at the latest. They were burying stories about rioting factory workers in Manhatten while publishing fake bullshit about southerners getting paid to hunt down and kill slaves. During a war. You know, when labor is in high demand.
