    The FCC just cleared the way for Sinclair Broadcasting to dominate local news. Here's why you should be worried. http://bit.ly/2hyUsvt pic.twitter.com/e5KyThda7n

        I refuse to watch Sinclair/Fox. I think that we all need to support PBS to get our news, watch CSPAN, & read a local newspaper to be informed in the future.

        Luckily the Fox station in Pittsburgh that's owned by Sinclair doesn't even have a newscast. There's no market for them. They just pick up NBC's local newscast. Smaller markets can marginalize them by boycotting sponsors.

        Exactly! We can learn to do without a lot of things as this GOP Fascist Regime continues to allow Corps to become monopolies. Within our communities, we should learn to share & help each other. Barter.

        @mmfa Great, a counterbalance to MSM & university leftist agendas. Is Fox a conservative network? Yes-nature abhors a vacuum

        Local news in Chicago/suburbs already shitty. This crap goes down, I'm watching it even less. I don't watch pro wrestling either.

        #6 Sometimes the media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.
