In reply to the discussion: DUers, do you realize that Trump & company are intentionally spreading false propoganda? [View all]Skidmore
(37,364 posts)23. This really concerns me as well as the fact
that so many here are willing not engage with those media outlets which do broadcast views from the left. The insistence on 100% purity in media is also stifling our voices while the hew and cry is that we have no coverage. It is up to us to support media that carries our ideas and to make sure that we put facts out there which can be reported. Relying on a handful of people to act as superheroes then kneecapping them when they can't do it all is profoundly shortsighted. Either that or we need to dig up done very wealthy people who can invest in media infrastructure on the left.
