COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA INSIDER
As for American media, they are free, too.
Free, that is, to do as their very small number of large
corporate owners dictate they should.
And I have yet to hear of a large American corporation which
does not cooperate, hand in glove, with the government of the United States on
a vast range of matters.
We saw the snowstorm of trash thrown at Trump by virtually
every one of them, a relatively small version of what the last couple of years
were like on the subject of President Putin.
And we are all aware of the stories of the ways Google,
Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and other (non-media) giants cooperate fully with the
CIA and NSA as well as how they worked in many surreptitious ways against Trump
during the election.
Anyone who believes in the integrity of corporate journalism
is simply someone not worth paying any attention to. Such ignorance and naivete
disqualify anything they might say.
