13. This is how they have won the battle

four decades no, my entire life of awareness, the republican's have been screaming about the "liberal" press.

At first, the press just shook it off, but over time they started to lose their courage and started to bend to the right to try to appease the right wingers.

Republican's living in a fantasy world where anything other than spouting pure party talking points = liberal bias didn't see a difference and kept screaming all the same.

This media continued to bend toward leaning rightward having lost its backbone completely.

Then, the 90s saw the rise spiteful shitbags like Gregory, who know full well the line and just get off and spewing right wing nonsense.

Sadly, today, that is what we have, a predominance of Gregorys and Todds, with the rest of the media being scared shitless of being being called liberally biased.
