The media's Anti-Biden noise isn't an accident:
- CNN: CEO Trump donor
ABC: CEO Trump donor
CBS: CEO Trump donor
MSNBC: CEO Trump donor
- Washington Post: owner Jeff Bezo
- Wall Street Journal: owner Rupert
Murdoch
New York Times: CEO Trump donor
- New York Post: owner Rupert

(8,937 posts)But I'm also going to be contacting all the MSNBC management and pundits who have gone off the rails trying to lose this election for Joe. Everyone but Joy Reid (and kind of Lawrence O'Donnell )has gone to the dark side, and they're going to get an earful. We should also contact their advertisers, and let them know they are about to lose a huge viewership if they don't quit this "fire Joe" nonsense. They suddenly think MSNBC is The Apprentice? I changed channels not to watch that Apprentice crap, too, before it ever started.
I know bullshit when I see it.

People ARE turning TV ⁰stations off and canceling subscriptions. I have been reading comments on You Tube and every time I see a video about Biden being too old 99.99% of the comments support Biden and express hatred of the MSM. That never happens on You Tube but it has been happening and I have been checking the feedback. This is good!

(27,238 posts)DU is a niche website. There aren't enough of us to make a difference, plus a lot of DUers hate-watch MSNBC and CNN so they can complain about them, particularly the former.

(1,040 posts)Otherwise I will be getting news from PBS and watching lots of Dateline, 20/20 and 48 Hours episodes. I am calling all of our congressional reps tomorrow to thank them for standing by our President.

(22,868 posts)I can always get better news from the late night comedians Colbert and Meyers and Kimmel ( but hes on vacation).
Though their comedy shows are more truthful reporting than the MSM news.

(9,940 posts)I don't mean people are turning it off.
I mean their audiences are literally dying.
In ten years, we're going to get Tucker Carlson's Frontage Road Corn Haulers followed up by Katy Tur's Constitutional Visitors. She's not saying the founders were aliens - but they were aliens.
What will follow is probably online venues that allow people to self-curate and hermetically seal themselves in echo chambers that are even more ironclad than the ones that exist now. People think Fox and channels like it are bad now? Oh ho. It's going to get much worse.
The 30s and 40s are going to suck in this country politically. Because people will know even less than they do now, but they will be even less aware of it.
