That's it. That's all they need to do to influence a country or population at the scale that billionaires operate at. They all have very similar opinions and preferences (otherwise they wouldn't be billionaires).
That so e people think that a publicly funded editorially independent press is somehow worse that this is maddening.
It's also not a zero sum game. We can have both, yet somehow some people think it's one or the other.
I hear you. And I agree, I would love more independently edited press out there. PBS and NPR seem under attack regularly by the right, but they do a pretty good job of being unbiased overall.
