Many of the traditional media outlets have always been pushing agendas too. You just may not have been aware of them. I don't mean to equate them with patriot Joe's bootlicker blog, exactly, but I also am no longer fooled by a facade of gravitas.

they are all owned by conservatives thats why theres a agenda push, if you look up who owns these MSMs.

I don’t disagree, but I think we are in a coarse battle between patriot Joe’s bootlicker blog and a basic dedication to the facts. I have my political biases, but society cannot sustain an assault on the truth in the service of promoting fascism. I suspect you want to move society left, and I have similar sympathies, but we should first sustain an open society and protect the values of objectivity and neutrality in the media.

Do you want your information from a source that is 80-90% about reporting and 10-20% opinion, or one that is 100% just pushing an agenda.

Of course I am absolutely against anything promoting fascism. I also think it is very important to analyze how we got to where we are. Part of the fault lies with our traditional media failing to do its job. I think it's a mistake to place your hope in the people who led us down this path to save us from the consequences.
