What is it, six major corporations own and control 90% of the media, they have a big investment in what is happening.

People may tire of hearing about the MIC, but appears to be a significant factor and I can't imagine the media companies doing anything that would be damaging to their profits, which come first and foremost as the underlying requirements of their corporate charters. Their investors are job one, really.

The mixture of big business and state has been around for a long time in the US and lobbyists are a powerful tool for corporations to get their demands and needs met. However, the merging of business and state was also a pinion of Fascist governments in the past, hence, we won't see the major media opposing it and what could would defending democracy do for stocks and those who own them?

What would be the incentive to care at all or decry the egregious attacks now? You could say that TrumpGOP is one of their kind in many ways. Birds of a feather. He generates revenue with his facade of a clown show, despite his rantings about fake news. He barfs, they report it.
