(2,479 posts)We've got the corporate "right-wing media" (corporate right), then we've got the corporate left. The corporate right puts their talking points out there, and they've got their audience. The corporate left, MSNBC, sometimes CNN serves as their echo chamber, so anyone who missed what right-wing fools say, can then hear it on the corporate left.
I've emailed them asking them to not put them on the left. We don't watch it, and realize they are full of __it. We don't want to hear these idiots on our slightly more legitimate stations, ones on the corporate left, that still omit a lot of issues that should be the province of the left, like anti-death penalty, talk about jobs, about why stopping democratic policy making has hurt jobs, about getting out of war and the over-burdening MIC in the first place.
But that is why they are the corporate left, MSNBC and such. They echo news on the right, in case you don't bother, and then they obfuscate the issues that hurt corporations, like any anti-globalization talk, or how shipping 35 million jobs away has hurt unions, wages, and more than anything, had a terrible effect on our country's debt.
