Wow, you're really going to elaborate lengths of pedantry here, aren't you? "Please define 'mainstream media' and no, I'm not satisfied with your definition."

Wow, you're really going to elaborate lengths of pedantry here, aren't you?
"Please define 'mainstream media' and no, I'm not satisfied with your definition."
Why is this important? You could make a list of 100 news sources and ask a random sample of 1,000 people to check Yes/No on "is this mainstream media?" You would get a very high level of agreement. It's not my responsibility to give you a definition you're happy with. This isn't a scientific debate.
- DoctorOW 4y agoI pointed out that you've yet to make any attempt to define it and still haven't.
- AlbertCory 4y agoIf there's anyone besides you who's confused, we haven't heard from them yet. I searched "mainstream media" on DDG and got a number of definitions. Maybe you could try that.
- DoctorOW 4y agoYour definition differs from the results offered as evidenced by your examples differing from other examples: i.e. of The Big Five[1] you picked on only the smallest, not even focusing on journalisitic enterprises because one of the larger organizations literally called "News Corp" didn't have a single of its publications make your list of news outlets.
