Politicians routinely make the case that trust in Govt is on the wane b/c of poor performance.

A chorus of local news reporters reading, word-for-word, from the same Sinclair script to attack the media and defend the President. This is not what an independent media looks like.pic.twitter.com/7QEEE9ltUK
It’s really amazing how this has been allowed to happen...
Yuk, but how were the ratings? Virtually no one watches RT so I’m a little fatigued by the freakout over its Svengali-like influence
The point is that Sinclair, with 40% US market share in local media, serves as a platform (on behalf of Russian propagandists) for undermining social trust in US media and government. And it wraps itself in the flag and the 1st Amendment while doing so. #SeditionAsaBusinessModel
I see that Sinclair is viewable in ~72% of US homes since its merger with Ttibune but where do you get the 40% market share figure? Agreed that they and their message are disgusting; FCC and DOJ antitrust wing should cap max media market share at 20%
Okay I just saw clip and am horrified
on the plus side, who watches local news anymore.... everybody is on Twitter or Facebook
When I moved to New York some 23 years ago I somehow expected local TV news to be more sophisticated and less rube-tastic than in Cleveland: after all, bigger city, it's New York… lolololololol
