Just a reminder that we have alternatives to right wing billionaire-owned news orgs. Here's a starter pack of LOCAL journalists and news outlets. In general, vastly less vulnerable to right wing bullshit.

The people who cancelled Jimmy Kimmel after Charlie Kirk's assassination will now control television stations that reach 80% of Americans, twice that what was legally allowed before Trump's takeover.

The state capture of network television is almost complete.

The Trump administration has approved the acquisition of 9NEWS' parent company, TEGNA, by Fox31's parent company, Nexstar.

Nexstar issued a statement praising President Trump, who says the deal will "help knock out the Fake News." Nexstar has declared itself "the anti-fake news"

1. I gave up on stockholder based news, a long time ago.

Thank God for Air America -> MSNBC -> Internet Media Networks.

2. Or, you know, read the news?

Many of the journalists from WaPo and NYT and CNN etc have gone to Substack. Many do both newsletters and vodcasts. This is a great opportunity to redefine what it means to consume news and who you consume it from.

An added benefit is causing these monster media companies to come to grips with the actual size of their audiences.

3. I sure hope Lina Kahn has a role in the next Dem administration.

We need anti-trust prosecutions like never seen before
