Comment Their real argument (Score 2, Interesting) 40
Their argument is "because Democrats".
No, their argument is "because Democrat bias".
I don't want my tax money going to politicized institutions, period. I don't want my tax money supporting one side *or* the other, government support should be politically neutral.
The airwaves are a public resource, the government is supposed to manage that resource for the public good.
"One sided" is not the public good. About half the country is conservative, there used to be rules about political bias, it was abolished in 1987, and this has led to the sorry state of affairs we have now.
MSM is unending, incessant propaganda. Rage bait intended to persuade rather than inform.
If it's not going to use the public resource for the public good, then the MSM shouldn't be using that public resource.
