    Of course, now MAGA controls the US media

    Which media is controlled by MAGA besides X?

      Truth Social 😂

      But the way Zuck was bootlicking at the beginning of Trumps term I’d say Facebook & Instagram. Those are media amplifiers.

      Wasn’t the Washington Post or something owned by Bezos, another bootlicker? Didn’t they even have a fight about endorsment?

      Yadda, yadda, actually A LOT of media is controlled by bootlicking billionaires. Of course it is, because I, for once, cannot afford to buy nation wide news outlets with measurable impact ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      I guess “control” is too strong. But media clearly is bending the knee to avoid issues with Trump, like 60 Minutes not airing segments critical of him.
