The media giants have abdicated their journalistic responsibility of speaking truth to power and authority. Power corrupts ... period. Now media giants have been empowered to move generations to support political agendas without even a healthy regard for balance, skepticism, or truth.

Where has authority placed power in modern times? The current rules in place work for the wealthy, powerful, privileged, and the entitled, which are now extremely politicized. It isn't that the rules are so unjust, it is that we have enabled abuses to the spirit of our laws. If you attempt to criticize the unfairness of one, the politicos point the finger at the other and the discussion becomes mired in irrelevance.

Power in the name of what is just, good, and shared with all is the only path to reclaiming a government by, for, and of the people. The MSM is not on board. The MSM has been losing its audience because they are failing in their primary mandate. Some are on the verge now of going under financially, and it can't happen too quickly IMO.
