Agreed. The media hasn’t been entirely compromised yet and reports on some of the more blatant corruption. There’s still absolutely corruption happening in the background (check out the OMB) but the true worry will kick in when the reports stop.
That said large portions of the population have been silo’d into echo chambers. That includes us (the royal us), frankly. The reports we see come from sources conservatives have written off years ago. Same for reports we see coming from sources that we have written off; Fox News et. al.
I believe our grievances with conservative sources are more founded in reality than the grievances conservatives have with “liberal media.” I also believe corporate- and billionaire-controlled social media eclipses traditional reporting in scope and engagement. They are the true arbiters of what is truth or mis-truth and that scares me more than Fox News.
