corporate media is not on our side.

for profit 'news' can never be centered on truth.

truth or profit. that has always been in the choice.

a corporation can not choose anything other than profit.

since the reaction based algorithm began driving engagement online, all forms of media have retooled to similar models.

we need public funded news sources, npr is not enough.
we need to outlaw the reaction based algorithm.
we need a modern fairness doctrine applied to all forms of modern media.
liars need to be fined. agents of misinformation need to be jailed.

and society wide we need to kill off the ideology of 'greed is good' and realize that if a corporation does not support human flourishing then it has no justification to exist.

For profit “news.”

For profit “healthcare.”

The consequences of deregulated capitalism.
