Why is anyone complaining that the company that didn't fire anyone spent a lot of money on a super bowl commercial?

I mean you get 6 months free WaPo I believe if you have an Amazon Prime account

most old style media hasn't been profitable for a long while now

bezos owns it personally as a pet propaganda outlet for himself

It's a "trusted" outlet that he can use as a mouthpiece

right

yeah, trusted by gullible boomers who don't know much of anything about tech passed tape cassettes

time, rolling stone, etc... all collapsed and were bought by rich liberals to use for propaganda

are people demanding that bezos should have spent all that money on scooping up everyone buzzfeed fired?

a surprising number of outlets died and were revived by liberal investors who use them for the customer list and propaganda outlets

so the whole `zombie media` schtick isn't that far off?

@Wulfolme I think the complaint was basically "a bunch of journalists just lost their jobs and now you're rubbing it in their faces"

'cause the outlets are omae wa mou

Learning to code is about as abusive as a dislike button

Hitting the public libraries.

newguard is the old guard of news creating a system to destroy independents. Look at the people they have on their boards (neocon and neoliberal warhawks that worked for defense contractors for example) @Paradox

Its not to destroy independents

Its just literal censorship

what happened to the investigative journos?

Under the guise of 1984 ministry of truth principles

I'm aware, but beyond just that, they bug me.

newsguard has MASSIVE conflicts of interest across their board
