    I was able to read it without a sign in. Thanks. For people who will refuse
    to read it just based on the URL or headline, the author is a conservative media critic who basically says that while the MSM is flawed, basically all other alternatives are much worse.

    It's a continuum. I like today's landscape, where all ideas can get out
    even if they're BS. The worst feature of the mainstream media is not their reporting, it's their narrative-herding. Egregious instances like the killing of the Hunter Biden story are extreme examples, but they are very, very, bad and do a lot to counterbalance the positives.

    So bottom line for me is that I am glad they don't have iron control
    of the narrative any more.

    The MSM simply isn't interested in investigative reporting anymore unless it's against their perceived enemy. Why did American media go from questioning the State and speaking truth to doing their bidding?
