This whole nazi mouthpiece org is the work of David D Smith and Christopher Ripley
DD Smith’s daddy founded Sinclair and he took it over in the 80s. C Ripley is the current CEO. Sinclair is a cornerstone of the nazi media organization, along with anything the Murdochs or Ellisons touch
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy
Any context here? Do you love sinclair more than other broadcast groups or what? Its not very interesting.
Maybe it’s normal in the US but to me owning this much of the media is a massive red flag and should never happen.
exactly the type of context for the link I was looking for.
If you’re in the US and didn’t already know the context then that’s fucking sad.
If you’re not, then makes sense.
This video should give you all the context you need about Sinclair.
the context is they are a corporate mouthpiece for the far right maga nutcases currently destroying the u.s.
They are a corporate MSM monopoly, created by fascists, for fascists.
Beyond owning a fuck ton of the information streams used by many Americans and being responsible for promulgating right wing ideologies through their selective reporting they are also calling for harsher action against Jimmy Kimmel after his monologue accurately chronically the right’s response to Kirk getting promoted to a good Nazi.
Transcript they are flipping their shit over just cause they can and have the power to go after an opposition mouthpiece:
We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.
In between the finger-pointing, there was grieving. On Friday, the White House flew the flags at half staff, which got some criticism, but on a human level, you can see how hard the president is taking this.

I think very good, and by the way, right there where you see all the trucks, they just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House
They own a fuckload of stations. One group owning pretty much all of local news is a big problem.
Here is a good reason why this is bad. This video is from 2017 and the situation has only gotten worse:
