- gnarbarian 2y agoJournalists are mouthpieces for their owners. They only punch one direction.
- jaggs 2y agoSadly you're right in an increasing number of cases. There are standout smaller outlets which are still upholding their duties, but for the most part billionaire owned media does the bidding of the money. A lot of it is our fault. We continue to support the billionaire class, without worrying about the consequences. Mostly out of fear I guess.
