What Sinclair is doing now will be worse. People now expect spin from the national news, but Sinclair is requiring local news anchors to read state propaganda like it’s true. When people start hearing this propaganda on the local news it will be believed. People still trust the local news and we are not prepared for this. We are not all the way down the rabbit hole, this country is not going to be recognizable in a couple years.
