    Nothing gonna get better in America until we completely obliterate the current media and pass laws preventing propaganda from being broadcast going forward.

    How would one define propaganda to avoid these laws being abused?

    A simple solution would be to outlaw all opinion panels on broadcast television. No one allowed on the news that expresses an opion of any kind. A reporter reports events that took place. The end. A hurricane hit Florida today with winds at these speeds. The end. A politician won the race with this many votes. The end. Two were arrested and are being charged with assault. The end.

    Violate this law? Heavy fine. 3 strikes within a year? Organization shut down.

    The problem is right now we have those reporters who report what happened, then it's followed up by 5 talking heads that lie/gaslight the audience into believing what they want them to believe. THAT shit needs to be outlawed.

    The media:

    [Counting their money]

    They're for-profit companies for a reason, and it's not to provide better news.

    His ratings are good on the networks because he's such a dumpster fire.

    You mean the networks he controls via his sycophant oligarchs creating monopolies and threats from the FCC over content he doesn’t like or he’ll pull their license?

    Sorry I’m still pissed about Colbert and 60 Minutes.
