They are parroting the Company Line, or else they have no job. Not many people are able to withstand that kind of pressure.
Independent press in this country [for the most part] died decades ago. Media consolidation in this country is an old story; the only thing new about it is that some of them are being bought out by Vulture Capitalists… & some [if not all] of them have bought & paid for their own politicians for years.

How dare the serfs question their masters, much less talk about paying smaller tithes…
I can’t imagine why the Cop Riots don’t get more press… /s
