You could maybe argue they weren't pushing a leftist agenda, sure. But they conveniently didn't fight for freedom of speech either. They were just very comfortable so long as the prevailing opinion on the wider media matched their beliefs. The "right" doesn't have this luxury.

Even the fringe left or far-left have a media "free pass" that they enjoy. And no one seems to understand this part of the criticism of the media by the right.

Not sure about that. Desantis seems to be having a jolly good time of making up random stuff and everyone going along with it.

Don't get me wrong, both extremes in your politics are beyond messed up.

The US is falling into irrelevance (slowly) and all y'all doing is trying to define what makes someone a woman haha
