Moreover, that these media companies are not able to make profitable revenue by conveying factual news reports. They have a growing footprint through the consolidation and influence the public discourse and keep it focused on (seemingly) the most inflammatory topics, statements and events in order to drive clicks, views, likes & shares. Hence, they've devolved into entertainment while the public at large still perceives them as news sources. I am sure this has been going on to some degree for centuries. More than consolidation, the unprecedented reach to now 5 billion humans actually should be concerning enough to raise a hue and cry for oversight. Did he call the neo-Nazi's and white supremacists fine people? Did Biden launch his campaign on that claim? How can our news sources call themselves news when a few seconds of research (literally) can show such an inflammatory claim as false? This has to stop.
