Big Media: why they all sound the same

The less choices we have the worse our culture becomes. Giant corporations have, and continue to kill our culture.
Democrats, and Republicans have both had their hands in deregulation, and both share the blame.

Thanks to giant corporations there's less creativity, and less taking chances. This is killing our music, movies, and ****ing souls.

I feel sorry for our kids. Our parents got the 60s, and some of us had the early 90s. Although the 90s alternative movement was short lived,
it was real, and powerful. I'm glad I got to experience it. I hope someone new comes, and shakes up things. No more (or less sequels), remakes, nickleback, and Maroon 5.

So we have bitched a bit here but where do you get your news/media? I read Al Jazeera but it doesn't cover the US enough. In that graphic Reddit etc are mentioned but any others? I just want to distance myself a bit from the conglomerates.
 
I hit MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, Washington Post, NYT, Time, Salt Lake Tribune, WSJ, Reuters, BBC...I try to hit as many different sources as possible.

If you look at the media outlets represented by the "big 6" you can see that they are overwhelmingly liberal. When you have an audience that starts at a young age watching this type of broadcasting as "entertainment" it's no wonder that they end up being a little left of loony as they grow up. I've said it before but it bears repeating... today's youth and the majority voting block of young adults have been indoctrinated into thinking they are open minded and progressive when in reality you have been brainwashed. This should piss you off and cause you to rethink your beliefs.

So, anyone with different beliefs than you is brainwashed. Got it. Thanks for the comment, Rush.

Great rant, and I agree with the 90's being bomb.com, I loved every minute of it. Of my illegally downloaded music that is on my computer - F-U APPLE - I'd wager that 90% of it, roughly 700 songs, is from the mid to late 90's. I loath listening to the radio these days, and have only done it when forced.

If only there were a resource where new bands could put up their new music for free. Someplace they could take all sorts of chances, and if they were good enough, build a following that would allow them to sell their music. Maybe we could call it MeScreen.
 
GE is not liberal....
yes MSNBC is, but MSNBC is a small part of GE,
and frankly , it doesn't look to me like much resources have been put into MSNBC...
Personally , I can't stomach the frivolous talking heads on that station.

right wing radio and tv and print, on the other hand ,
I think has the backing of a lot of billionaires
