I'm all for hammering them to a wall. But not replacing one propaganda outlet with another. Sue them, pull their liscense, everything legal. Hire PIs and if something fishy turns up, go with it. We don't use the tools we already have.
Look at the GOP. Have they once ever taken the media to task? Do they ever tell them FOAD? The dirty little secret is that all they need do is avoid the media entirely.
OMG! I"ve been saying that exact thing since 1992! But nobody on our side seems to know how to do this sort of thing. (Till Trump came along.)
Yes, if our side would treat them like vermin, call them liars and dishonest at every opportunity, refuse to deal with them and deliberately marginalize them, it would provoke a negative feedback effect which would steer them back toward's fairness. But for some reason we can't seem to get our side to cooperate in solidarity with *ANY* sort of strategy, let alone one that would require this level of will and determination.
There is absolutely no law that says MSPMS or any network is entitled or has a right to a seat in the press room. Throw them out. Bring in any outlet that is unbiased and give them the chair. Do press events online. Trump just proved what I got laughed at 4 years ago. No one needs the blessing of legacy media.
That is exactly what I just said. Trump is the first one to come along (Newt tried a little) to demonstrate to them that there can be retaliation for being non objective in their coverage. The legacy media cannot operate if they can't get access to what half (at this point more than half) the government thinks. Cut off their access until they behave, and make them understand that deliberate and overt bias is now off the table.
There is a shitton of things to do. So all we need do is apply them and let the liberals scream and rant and call us satan. They will anyway.
Alternative news networks is a good idea, but we also need alternative entertainment sources. Right now Liberals steer the culture with the propaganda they produce disguised as entertainment. Here is an obvious example.
