Compartmentalization

Well, 'right' but not accurate--- as in, nowhere near the broader picture which is necessary for a more balanced understanding of what is in play.

The article is not balanced, if it must resort to incendiary phrases such as "Trump administrations pursuit of dismantling regulations," especially in light of the fact that the current landscape of diminish ...[text shortened]... leanings--- is not a good thing.
But it wasn't Trump that brought it on: it is us who allow it.

"And that's how we have monstrosities such as Clear Channel.
This leviathan is responsible for having played Mrs. Robinson from Simon & Garfunkel no less than six million times, to date.
If a three-year old heard nothing but Clear Channel's 'diversity' non-stop, they would go 32 years without a break.
Coo-coo-ka-chew... "

Sorry to inform you Sir...but Clear Channel extrudes Rush Limbaugh through its media-pipe.

Freaky.You seem to have gotten off on a tangent here.

Reread what I actually wrote.

Reread what the article actually says.

There is nothing like a uniform front by the main stream media to ensure we're all getting the best, most pure form of "the news."

This thread is a self-parody, right?

Despite the blatant fake news of CNN and its cartoonish content, they're just as guilty as any of the remaining purveyors of obfuscation and misdirection for the stage they all set for the consuming public.
We deserve it if we don't do something about it, right?

Once again, you and your fear-mongering is a "solution" in search of a problem.

What fear-mongering are you seeing, exactly?
Do you consider diversity a bad thing?
That's what it seems as though you're driving at, since the idea here is that one source for anything is not a good thing, no matter how benevolent or profitable it may appear at first.
There is only one incorruptible Source.
For everything else, "Trust, but verify."

I would hope that you can see the problem part of having one source for news.

Rush must be in the mix, but Clear Channel is not one station near where you live.

I read the article again.
What part are you objecting to, that I am saying Trump has no culpability?
He doesn't, if that's the case, because he's within the law.
The laws are such that monopolies--- okay, maybe a few steps before a complete monopoly, wink-wink-nudge-nudge, right guys?--- are now allowed.
This type of throttling is completely and utterly legal, whereas before the Tele Act, it wasn't.
Even then, inroads were being made by those who realized they can conquer the land when the own the skies.
And they own the skies.

The internet helped stave that off for awhile, but the talons are in here, too, so caveat emptor, folks.

Seems a little more relevant now a few days later.
