People can choose which service best meets their needs. And the RW and lefty stations have been depleted and now on both sides of fence are being preempted constantly by other content.
You are echoing the same argument that the MSM makes when anyone suggests trying to live up to the conditions of their broadcast licenses and keep the public informed and allowing for fairness in the airing of multiple viewpoints on issues. They are going to argue they need to consolidate and focus on entertainment instead for the same reasons (to make money).
Ultimately, if they are allowed to do so, then we will have a completely uninformed citizenry, and democracy will die.
