Taxpayer Funded Media would follow Taxpayer Funded Hamas. What next for God’s sake?
If this is allowed, the mass propaganda media will become a taxpayer-subsidized state propaganda enterprise.
This from frontpagemag.com.
The seemingly useless condition of Conservatism presently is such that Soros can take over some of the largest radio networks in the country and the communist/globalist Deep State can begin building a massive taxpayer-subsidized media in plain sight.
Worse yet, stories on these activities will receive next to zero attention in the legacy media and next to no one but Def-Con News readers will catch any of the details.
And to top that, 95% of those elected to the U.S. Congress as Republicans will remain quietly seated on their compromised thumbs.
Only Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, and a few others will be speaking out against this atrocious horses**t.
In April, investigative journalist Daniel Greenfield wrote about what was happening in New York:
The state budget, set to be finalized Saturday, includes the nation’s first payroll tax credit for local news organizations in a bid to encourage new hiring amid the ongoing struggles of journalism outlets to cover their communities.
The late addition to the $237 billion budget allows eligible outlets to receive a 50 percent refundable credit for the first $50,000 of a journalist’s salary, up to a total of $300,000 per outlet.
This is fairly mild compared to what’s coming out of California:
A California lawmaker has introduced a bill that would levy a ‘data extraction mitigation fee’ on companies such as Google and Meta in order to provide media outlets in the state with a tax credit meant to pay for more journalists.
Senate Bill 1327, by Sen. Steve Glazer, D-Contra Costa, would raise around $500 million annually to be split among California news outlets, depending on their size and whether they offer employee health and retirement benefits.
Facebook and Google obviously won’t be paying it, We the People will. The Big Tech firms will simply charge advertisers more and they’ll raise their prices.
But where the money is coming from
matters less than where it’s going.
Faced with an economic apocalypse in the media, especially local media, communists/globalists are working to turn the whole enterprise into one big taxpayer-subsidized monstrosity.
And they’re doing it while
Republicans are sleeping or playing along.
Greenfield has been writing about this for nearly a decade and despite the fact that the transformation of the media into nonprofits is a game changer, there is very little interest in the subject.
And dangerously, there will be very little interest in it until it is far enough along that there is nothing left to do but complain about it.
The media will become a taxpayer-
subsidized state propaganda enterprise.
Conservatism, Wake Up! You Bozos are up against evil genius incarnate.
