the reason they're panicking on this is because ALL leftist media has been taking tons of US gov money for years.
check out the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act
or the shadow grant org that's been doing over a billion a year to leftist media in taxpayer dollars under the generic NGO name CDP.
they're all state affiliated media. leftists are pissed because the threshold used to be about "editorial control". but when the bias is so far left, they cannot deny there's no editorial control. in contrast, look at C-SPAN where it's funded by the government, but is the most neutral media anyone could watch. the only time they've had biased bullshit come up is when some jackass leftard got tilted and cut the feed to something trump was doing in an official proceeding.
