All this talk of state-sponsored/subsidized news/media gives me the wiggins, at least as someone who lives in the US. I’m sure people smarter than myself could come up with a bullet proof system to prevent abuse, but really, I would have little faith it would stand the test of time. I feel like any protections you put in place would be eroded eventually. Maybe I’m wrong. It just feels so 1984ish.

    Do you mean “American Broadcasting Company”? Because they are owned by Disney.

  Ah yes. The conservative government decided they would be in charge of choosing the chairman, chose a major party doner, and the BBC now kiss the conservative government’s ass whenever possible. Flawless.

I’d say German state media is going OK. Its anything but perfect but definetly doesn’t kiss any parties ass
