We have a state run media worse than anything the soviets or Orwell ever dreamed of.
Yeah this is crazy, the Biden administration was using our tax dollars to pay the media to run their propaganda, this is a huge scandal.
The Biden administration? You think this started four years ago?
Sure both sides have used usaid for all kinds of bullshit but the reason it's a buncha corrupt lefty shit right now is because of whoever "biden" put in charge of it.
Right now? Do you know what forum you're on?
I would argue if you look at Western European media it's much worse. People call the BBC a "reliable" source of news.
