Reply to comment by [deleted] in Supreme Court leaves in place Title 42 border policy for now by monstertruckbackflip

Bruh you’re so dramatic. I read today a meat magnate died. That was free so is it fake?

Yeah that person was dramatic. However, they have a point too.

Fox is free. Afaik there's literally nothing paid. They're misinformation personified as a corporate entity.

You want nuance? You pay for it. Which means most people take what's free, hence all the bullshit.

As far as the "fell out a window"..... There's no hidden info, there's no spin. He got pushed out a window. It's a fucking Russian assassin's cliche by now.

This post has a nuanced problem. My personal opinion is that it's easy to reduce problems without a full fix. But it doesn't matter, because most people can't read it and go by gut reaction.

Good Journalists deserve to get paid, which means good journalism should be paid for. This makes it harder to access, unfortunately, which means bad journalism will spread misinformation/propaganda farther. Journalism doesn't jive well with a capitalist model. We should support publicly funded news medias more.

That changes nothing about what I said. If anything public funded news should get funding from Dems. Sure, it's going to hurt them sometimes, but most of the time it won't. Also, does subscriptions mean it's public funded? I don't think so but I'm no expert.

I wasn't disagreeing with you, just sharing an opinion on the topic. If anything, I think our opinions were aligned.
