The media is right wing. Even cnn has shifted right to capture viewers.
Turns out the left isnt interested in watching endless hours of repeated editorial content presented as journalism.
So the capitalists have leaned into the market that so willing to listen and that is the right. The mainstream of media has been Fox News for a ver a decade now, so to claim the mainstream isn’t right leaning is to claim that fox doesn’t exist.
It’s fine if the right wants to gaslight themselves as victims. It’s basically expected as this point. The narrative that keeps them tuned into endless new cycles that keep them fearing the larger world all but demands it.
No one expects the right to accept reality. Everyone understands they need comforting lies. Even they know it. They admit it. Then go right back to believing the lies and dismissing their momentary admittance of reality as lie as they bask in the glow of their gaslights.

What a brilliant take by this blogger. Mainstream media must be left wing because individual journalists (who don’t control the media) donate to Democrats. Truly infallible logic.

A significant portion of the GOP platform now relies on their idea of “Lügenpresse”. Anything suggesting a right-leaning media shatters the conservative persecution fetish.

They are also fully embracing the good old firehose of propaganda. Wonder where they got that idea from.
