The news from American media is about to get a lot happier.
All the major media operate in a national market. No business in a dictatorship can survive for long if it enrages the dictator. The media will have to make a decision at some point: make nice to Trump or get hammered into the ground by Barr's rogue Justice Department. I know we'd like to imagine our fearless Fourth Estate standing firm in the face of adversity, but I'm not putting any serious money on it.
