The Louisiana non-unanimous jury verdict saga just got similar, scary, one-sided newspaper treatment.
Not necessary because it should or shouldn't have been changed, but because the obvious propaganda was so damn effective. And it wasn't blanket coverage by every local news outlet, but constant, serialized coverage from one, arguably dying, newspaper.
Reminds you of just how powerful even a single media outlet can be when it wants to.
Also, that any future that newspapers might have will require selling influence, instead of advertising and subscriptions.
