This from Dallas Stephens:

Idle thought. Seems to me there's only one way to bring all of the networks & news providers together and that's to create an Orwellian "Government Bureau of Information" that delivers only one message - and we all know how that would end. As such, what the world needs is more free market competition that would allow water could seek its own level. And therein lies the problem as far as Bubba's concerned. Despite the fact that central banks keep dumping trillions of new money (debt) into the world, it seems to be only progressives that are willing to put that money (debt) where their mouth's are to in order to advance an agenda. Conservatives seem more concerned with profits & profit potential. Tain't like a history of the last 50-75 years won't reveal that Disney & Comcast came to control most public discourse via mergers & acquisitions - not through innovation or creation. Tain't like NBC, ABC and CBS haven't all traded hands via takeovers in the last few decades. Tain't like rightie's couldn't have bought them, and it tain't like righties couldn't have used pressure on Congress to block those takeovers. Same for print media and social media. Same for public schools and private universities. Same for religious hierarchies. Money has always been used to buy agendas that advance progressive narratives. So, until conservatives, libertarians and truth-seekers begin to buy and create entities that disseminate 'news', 'facts' and 'truth', the battle will quickly be lost. Buying politicians won't work until the rest happens first.
