@moz @fixatedpersonsunit Shocker: the “record numbers” touted by the capitalist media apparatus are just bots and aggregator redirects slamming into a paywall. The entire business model is a shell game—manufacturing consent and fake metrics to serve the ruling class and their advertisers. Classic News Corp spin: inflate the numbers, wave them at shareholders, and call it success.

[To whom is unfamiliar with #Chomsky's work:]

What is weird in the post above is applying to a small "alternative" media outlet vocabulary from #EdwardHerman and #NoamChomsky's #propagandaModel, devised for larger mainstream government-aligned media institutions.

And then linking it to a suggestion of #censorship, anathema to Chomsky's staunch #freeSpeech advocacy.

Exactly

Unlike with Union leaders, presenters & journalists rarely if ever ask their multimillionaire & billionaire interviewees if they are greedy. Why not? If they asked, they'd not be granted any more interviews, & would therefore be denied a resource they depend on.
