Dem/left leaning 'major/Legacy' media: ABC, NBC, CBS + MSNBC, CNN

Trump Media: FoxNews, NewsMax, OANN

NOTE: The 'Trump Media has a very small fraction of the total viewership than all those of the dem media, so not sure what the lefty is 'worried' about.

ABC, NBC, CBS, & CNN are center-right media.

MSNBC is at best center-left.

We do not have ANY actual leftist mainstream media in this country.

A champion...yes.
A national media champion, yes, with a qualifier...the internet is not national network media, and more and more of that national media is bought by the rich to suppress the voice of the poor. CBS, The Washington Post, other major newspapers...they are lost to the forces of corporate cutthroat capitalism which is a great friend of the Trump gang.

How could there be? The left isn't mainstream.

I used to really like him... sorta. Then he seemed too self-indulgent with all the click-baiting tactics rehashing the same video... the same long-winded interpretations... lord have mercy... mountains out of mole hills.

I called him out for his part in getting Trumpanzee elected the first time with all his Hillary-hating diatribes because of Bernie butt hurts... and lack of support for her candidacy right up until just before the election... He owned it that his behavior probably did play a part.

Cenk and Ana from TYT just double down on whichever way the wind blows for this that or the other... feels too gossipy...

ABC, NBC, CBS and especially CNN are the most leftist media we have out there. They are no where NEAR right on anything. Without Fox, the right would no one to report their side of the news.

Fox is blatant unapologetic rightwing propaganda that melts peoples' critical thinking skills. It tells stupid people what they want to hear. Rupert Murdoch is responsible for the downfall of modern civilization

Poor Boaz. Foxnews, OAN, Newsmax, Breitbart, the entirety of Radio, and most podcasts are all far right wing, and CNN et al cater to those listeners, but it's not good enough for him.

Republicans own the MSM and the messaging. And still suck.

Missing Persons - Destination Unknown (1982)

Lyrics excerpt ...

genius.com

...
[Verse 1]
Life is so strange when you don't know
How can you tell where you're going to?
You can't be sure of any situation
Something could change, and then you won't know

[Verse 2]
You ask yourself
"Where do we go from here?
It seems so all too near
Just as far beyond as I can see
I still don't know what this all means to me"

[Verse 3]
So you tell yourself
"I have nowhere to go
I don't know what to do
And I don't even know the time of day
I guess it doesn't matter anyway"

[Chorus]
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know
Your destination
And something could change
It's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown
...

@#15 ... Sometimes I wonder about Pres Trump's end goals ...

Then I realize ...

His end goal seems to be the destruction of Democracy in the Country, in favor of unfettered adulation of a self-proclaimed almighty leader.
