Zero surprise.
MSM/legacy media is captured.
There are still good editors and reporters struggling and doing good work at those outlets. But corporate constraints are designed to prevent them from telling the plain truth, from pursuing "inconvenient" stories.

🤮 I had NYT and WaPo subscriptions for almost 30 years.
Not any more.

At this point virtually all MSM has been captured or is, at minimum, complicit in regime propaganda.
This ranges from outright distribution (Fox News, #BezosEnquirer) to whitewashing, turning a blind eye, and both-sides-ism (CNN, MSNBC) to capitulation (CBS).
This is a consequence, 🧵

Ben Bradlee and Katharine Graham are spinning in their graves.
I hung on to my Washington Post subscription for a long while because of the staff reporters, but most of them, along with key editorial staff, have fled.

Reporters and anchors are frequently rich or at least upper middle class.
Corporate control has destroyed editorial independence.
Independent news outlets doing real reporting *are* out there. (And I don't mean talking head podcasts.) We need to support them.

Congress has been slowly ceding its authority - especially around the power to wage war - for some 40 years now.
Of the 3 branches, Congress is the heart of "We the People."
The power of the presidency is a monster with too many Dr. Frankensteins to credit.

Today we are witnessing the outright Fox-ification of network after network.

Last thought: even if the reporter does a good job, it's the editors who write headlines.
It's about ownership installing the editorial slant they want. This comes through hiring decisions, story selection, headlines, and the editorial page.

At this point, the owners and high-level editors of the NYT and various other MSM outlets are collaborators. Period.
