Because you have a large number of media outlets. There's at least one media outlet for every relatively big ideology or demographic. And these biases are well understood by people.

With LLMs, you'll probably end up only having 2 or 3 companies, and it wouldn't be surprising if they all end up having silicon valley, left leaning biases.

You can tune Fox news, but you can't use a "right wing chat gpt".

You can build your own with the GPT API. I started playing with it and it returned racial slurs in response to innocuous prompts like "hello" and "ok". Seems perfectly tuned out of the box for the kind of speech that the right is interested in these days.

Can you share your prompts for reproducibility?

IIRC "hello" and "ok" were the literal prompts, calling the API with the example code.
