    1. This is why the Globalists are getting desperate. Noone is watching or listening to the MSM anymore except the sheeple and lemmings. Its an echo chamber while a growing number of people are having their eyes opened by the blogosphere and actual independent journalists. This is forcing the globalists out into the open where joe and jill public are starting to see the world for what it is-a two tiered system of haves and have nots where the Uniparty does whatever it wants with no fear of reprisal or accountability thanks to a bought and paid for media.
      I think England will be the canary in the coal mine-you can stand by and let muslim grooming gangs rape peoples kids only for so long before violence breaks out. Its should already be at that point but then, conservatives have always been less prone to resorting to violence than dumb ass lefties. Mark Steyn is predicting it and he hasn’t been wrong too often in the last 20 years.

  1. I stopped cable TV so many years ago, I forget how many. I just was not watching it but I was watching documentaries on youtube and I was getting my news from this site and http://www.iotwreport.com.
    It totally “burns my biscuits” that my tax dollars have to support the CBC, CTV and Global here in Canada.

  2. On my computer the top row on U-tube is a series of blogs the Internet thinks I want to watch. Scroll past that and the next set of rows are Canadian content (not sure how to disable that) with links to CBC, CTV and so on. Then a host of popular blog posts (some good, some bad) and finally I scroll into the world of music, from electronic to 1970s Kenji psychedelic (pretty good stuff) and lately Three Dog Night (Kenji again).

    My point is, if people like me (not brand new) won’t even watch a CBC or CTV 2 minute blog post, how on earth do they expect us to tune into their channels to watch an entire news cast? Forget the young people who have never seen a newspaper let alone a coaxial cable connection. No customers, no advertising, no revenue.

    1. The Neilson ratings don’t matter any more because it measures the interests of professional TV watchers, and then projects that across the whole population, but most people have moved away from that model

  3. Bezos finally realized he can’t financially prop up a progressive cesspool.
    Now I hope he turns an eye towards the similar cesspool that he owns, Twitch.

    1. @Al
      The Post is in trouble because a large part of its readership has come to realize that Bezos’ lips are firmly attached to Trump’s anus. ie: Bezos’ Melania silly movie doc.

  4. The dominant idealization of sound journalism has shifted from fearless seekers of objective truth to champions of social justice. Objective truth isn’t just not sought, but often openly mocked.

    There will always be, I trust, a robust market for the first. The second requires little skill and thus lacks an economic moat.

      1. PBS, NPR, and the CPB were kickback streams to certain special demoncrats, they weren’t meant to be actually useful anymore.

  5. Through political “same paging,” sound bite coordination and ideological narrowing, “journalists” have succeeded in rendering themselves redundant. As with any compounded incestuous process the net result is freakish and not viable. No asteroid necessary.
    The WaPo deposed Nixon who was perhaps the greatest asset the “left” ever had. And while their leadership is lauded for it to this day, it serves as a benchmark in modern American political canabalism.
