    What?? MSNBC and CBS and CNN are full on propaganda machines for Dems. NY times, watpo, every major paper outlet, all either endorsed or threw a fit when they were blocked from endorsing Kamala.

      Nobody under the age of 60 watches tv news or reads newspapers, never mind that most of those are owned by right-wing billionaires and are managed opposition at best. They also have a paywall around them that keep out most people.

      Compare that to the right-wing propaganda machine that infects absolutely every type of media. There are dozens of bullshit “news” sites with no paywall that get top billing in news aggregators, they’ve gamed the YouTube, Facebook, etc algorithms to promote their propaganda, right wing podcasts like Joe Rogan get promoted front and center on Spotify and so on

        You think there aren’t left-wing podcasters and streamers? There definitely are.

        But what you want are people to enjoy those programs, and the problem is, most people relate to the ones who have gotten big. Joe Rogan got his Spotify deal because he’s relatable, and his podcast numbers show that.
