The worst is when rich people interview other rich people about their rich person thing (e.g. Ivanka Trump purchasing an island), so that poor people can watch it on television. That level of narcissism and arrogance is just fucking astonishing to me. You can be rich and also just shut the absolute fuck up about it.
Seeing some of the wealthy crying on camera, saying they'll flee because of a tax, that it's a nightmare scenario, that it's akin to a racist slur to tax the rich...
On an unrelated note, did you know that during the french revolution, guillotines were used?
I don't get it either bit poor people even love to watch this, thinking rich people are still normal people with normal problems... Lets not forget though that rich people are not our main concern. It's the obscenely rich people that need some obscene defunding.
My eyes were practically bleeding while watching some local news coverage at a bar, fairly recently.
It was literally two geriatric fascists in cowboy hats yelling at each other over the image of a young black man with facial tattoos in an orange prison jumpsuit. The debate was whether the local PD had gone woke and become complicit in street crime or just needed another zillion dollars of additional funding to fight the urban menace.
how much money does google make? billions of dollars a year
most of it comes from manipulating your opinion, one way or another.
A lot of the people doing it aren’t even rich anymore. It’s a Ponzi scheme of influencers vying for social capital that can’t actually be cashed in for anything
Thanks Frieren!
Frieren should do to rich people what she does to demons!
Theyre one and the same
Sports coverage is not news; there's always a sports segment in every 'news' program. Entertainment masquerading as news. Kill Rupert Murdoch and his progeny.
this makes me sad because newspaper people are not rich at all
city desk editors and reporters and photojournalist and fact checkers are poverty wage jobs.
they are not the rich.
This is part of the "blame each other".
they're the stenographers for the rich
It's almost like wage labor is a form of servitude to the owners of the means of production under capitalism.
Dosn't matter, they have to do what the people who own the newspaper tell them to do. And those are rich.
The existence of “Earned Media” implies and proves the existence of “Unearned Media” (the rich and privileged paying other rich and privileged people)
