    That’s fair too. I don’t disagree the media has or at least should have an obligation to correct the messages or misinformation that they broadcast.

    I think dissolving the fairness doctrine and centralizing a rich media ecosystem into giant conglomerates to push candidacies as they pleased has done a giant disservice to our discourse. The internet is taking us back to times before this dissolution with the growing pains which that entails (mass disinformation). Attempts at clamping down on "mis/disinformation" have to be observed quite critically and likely avoided as regaining centralization/monopolization will be sold to us with an altruistic veneer.

    It's dangerous times w/echo chambers and government intel meddling no doubt but I think if people come out of this w/better media literacy and a more skeptical eye, we might all be better for it.

    Ronny Jackson -- you know the guy "who represents the Texas Panhandle and the Wichita Falls area, previously served in a White House physician role under Trump, and was accused of having been frequently intoxicated while in that job, as well as sexually harassing staff, mishandling drugs, and crashing a government vehicle while drunk." He's now the tough man.

  6. Probably not. But in 1939? Probably.
