Here's the issue: how can privately-funded mainstream media remain profitable? We're no longer in an era where everyone tunes in to a specific channel for "unbiased" coverage. They've all proven to be corrupt and catering to special interests, like the government, or in its absence, rich donators like Soros and other billionaires with an agenda. They can't make a profit and maintain standards purely on commercials, since fewer people than ever actually watch tv, and most people have ways to avoid watching ads with streaming.

So how else are they supposed to stay afloat and with good standards? You can't run a network like Fox or CNN with the OMG's funding.
