I can not produce it, but I made a list of at least 6 links to different news sources, mostly newspapers, that had varying degrees of conservative Right leanings and yet were fundamentally ethical publishers. I imagine if you look you will find or duplicate my lost list. I mean to say our country already has fierce but ethical right wing news sources, they're just probably not broadcast news sources, they're print and web sources.
I wanted to further comment that your statement is really only true of broadcast television if the size of the viewing audience reaches a threshold that attracts advertisers. I reference your initial self-declaration, because I expect it includes support for free-market capitalism, so you should already understand why you're not seeing the broadcast news service that you want. Good on you for seeing some of the issue, regarding all the nonsense, and yet, hard-right conservative libertarianism is, itself, I'm afraid, nonsense. This is reflected in the fact that you're not seeing a broadcast news source of which you approve, and yet neatly and ironically you do approve by, admittedly I assume a small included detail of your stated ideological leaning, which is a strong insistence on free market-capitalism.
One might say a similar ideology in synchronicity with libertarianism is Rand's Objectivism, which similarly does not cut the mustard to be a philosophy. Notably, Rand said, All kinds of people today call themselves "libertarians," especially something calling itself the New Right, which consists of hippies who are anarchists instead of leftist collectivists; but anarchists are collectivists. Capitalism is the one system that requires absolute objective law, yet libertarians combine capitalism and anarchism. That's worse than anything the New Left has proposed. It's a mockery of philosophy and ideology. They sling slogans and try to ride on two bandwagons. They want to be hippies, but don't want to preach collectivism because those jobs are already taken. But anarchism is a logical outgrowth of the anti-intellectual side of collectivism. I could deal with a Marxist with a greater chance of reaching some kind of understanding, and with much greater respect. Anarchists are the scum of the intellectual world of the Left, which has given them up. So the Right picks up another leftist discard. That's the libertarian movement.
Rand's Objectivism is utter nonsense, her novels unfortunate implementations of her nonsense, but I don't give her enough credit, because that's not half bad.
