As expected from an NPR article it did the buzzword bingo. "White supremacy", "Racism", "Misinformation", and of course writing "Immigrants" when they mean "Illegal Immigrants".

It's no wonder people don't trust news. NPR/NYT etc. used to be so good before they became obsessed with all the above garbage, now they are as ideological as FOX. Most likely due to the type of person that works there now. I'm happy to see the main news outlets die as their audience goes elsewhere.

From the article:

“ Smaller groups of wealthy businesspeople control larger swaths of the country's information ecosystem, pitting their overall corporate interests against the public's desire for accurate journalism challenging powerful institutions in society.”

Curious what about that you see as “good news”?

Ppl finally leaving legacy/corporate/virtue-signaling media is good news to me. The "free" western media being the exact opposite of free: owned by billionaires - is and old problem but a certain part of the population seems to notice only now when some of the owners took off the playlist their favorite "progressive" lullaby.
