Private ownership of the media and relentless propaganda.
Yeah because government run media is such a great idea. /SARCASM
I’d take BBC/PBS over Fox News any day.
The broadcasts' content on PBS are still privately owned. The part that is publicly funded is the broadcasting of the content.
For example, Bob Ross video recordings are owned by Bob Ross Inc which has been fought over for decades. That one is a messy example, but it applies to every other media as well.
