I think money only goes so far. Consider the employees of every large tech company are over 90% one side.
Also Trump received 85% unfavorable coverage on ABC, CBS, and NBC. In contrast, Harris enjoyed 78% positive coverage from the same networks
How do you quantify that monetarily?
I agree local non presidential politics is more balanced but that's kind of pointless considering reelection rate is around 90%

- Retric 2y agoIt’s an interesting question. I’m not sure negative stores from ABC etc meaningfully hurt Trump any more than FOX etc hurt Harris. Media is so polarized and increasingly online that who shows up to the polls is really the most important factor. As someone not particularly interested in politics I knew almost nothing about Harris beyond party affiliation. Differentiation is a big deal in primaries but by the general election it’s go Red team go Blue team. Many Republicans I know felt I’d rather have a clown in office than a Democrat, but a votes a vote it doesn’t matter how much you like them as long as you show up.
