    Well, this will be a great improvement for America. We all need more centralization of media ownership by the oligarchs.

      There seems to be a lot of dishonesty in mainstream media in general, so personally I wouldn't mind a different perspective but the entire industry needs a reform.

        > a different perspective

        The broad conclusion one reaches surveying the mainstream media and the alternative-facts media those rejecting the mainstream seem to find is that the former, despite its flaws, is far more a news source than the latter, which mostly tickles its users wants and insecurities.

      Washington Post moment, I'd expect. The information space around the next election will be crazy. State of emergency and president for life, anyone?

        Not quite: in the timeline it's the next one that's for life, a neuralink-plugged CNN-says-he's-alive heir that will then be `alive` until humanity's extinction.

        just kidding
