If the mainstream media is dying anyway, why get mad at it?

[Exigent Circumcisions]

You're dying of AIDS and you still piss me off, OP.

 

[Mr. Manchester]

Because they're still relevant now and get highlighted by Google to push an agenda. You think the bullshit they push is going away with their current form disapates? The people paying for it will still be there and fuck with journalism in 30 years too. Right now at least we know what to be pissed at, enjoy it while it lasts.

 

[Xarpho]

They have deep pockets. ABC is owned by Disney, NBC is owned by Comcast, CNN is owned by AT&T, etc.

 

[adorable bitch]

Because they're really smug about what little power they do have and I don't like it!

Kicking people while they're down is what kiwifarms is all about.

 

[HeyYou]

Because journalists are faggots and shit up social media more than even the most autistic Kekistan/antifa account.

 

[Kirito]

Because I want to do my part in killing it.

 

[Draza]

I think mostly beacause these MSM sites and journalists still hold a high amount of power and backing in society from governments, private companies, and private donors. These MSM sites are also still the go to for majority people for news and information, which can allow public opinions to be control and even swayed. So matter how much some people can screech on how bad journalists are and MSM is dying, these entities will mostly continue on as they still maintain a form of power ,reliance, and support in society. I guess you can say that they're mad that MSM isn't dying fast enough to their expectations.

 

[Krokodil Overdose]

Because they're not dead yet and deserve to be. It offends peoples' sense of justice that these slimeballs keep spewing propaganda disguised as news, as opposed to learning to code.

 

[InvertedDickEnthusiast]

The same reason I don't want to be around an asshole after he gets cancer. If he was an asshole before he got cancer, and he's an even bigger asshole after the cancer, it doesn't mean I have to let him act that way towards me just because he's dying.

 

[Lurkio]

Because if you work at or frequently go to public places there's a good chance they'll have a T.V for public viewing, and often times that T.V will have the news on it, and there's only so long a person can listen to a bunch of old people complain about shit that isn't important before you want to bash said T.V into pieces with a sledgehammer.

 

[byuu]

Because in their desperation they push retarded laws like the German and EU link tax.

 

[UN 474]

Because most humans like getting angry at stuff. We look for reasons to complain because it feels good to complain. We are all victims of this. lul

 

[Wikipedia Scholar]

the legacy media is arrogant, hubristic, self-righteous, and thoroughly dishonest. while they're obviously dying off (and doing everything in their power to hasten their demise) they're not dead yet, and they still have more clout and influence to burn through. while they are still relevant, it's only natural to object to obnoxious propagandists who claim to be The Truth.

Because most humans like getting angry at stuff. We look for reasons to complain because it feels good to complain. We are all victims of this. lul

also this.

 

[Jewelsmakerguy]

Because they're stil on life support when they should have been unplugged at least a year or so ago.

 

[Sweetpeaa]

It's impressive how U.S media hides the black mob violence issue. But the question is, why?

 

[Jewelsmakerguy]

It's impressive how U.S media hides the black mob violence issue. But the question is, why?

Simply put, it'd make them look like hypocrites. By focusing solely on the white mobs, then they can paint the black population as the "unfairly oppressed" population while everyone else is depicted as "violent savages that hate the black community".

By exposing that the blacks aren't any better than the whites during the riots, it ruins the entire scam narrative they're trying to put out.

 

[Shadfan666xxx000]

Well since this thread got necrod I might as well add my 2 cents.
The mainstream media is an active opponent They have done everything in their power to discredit the internet and are currently trying to hijack it and with silicon valley's backing they have actually been very successful. If people dont try to drag them down then we'll only see more chaos from them

 

[LinkinParkxNaruto[AMV]]

>America elects a reality show star and pop culture icon
>Mainstream Media is dying
pick one

 

[Lemmingwise]

Imagine for a second david and goliath. Goliath has been terrorizing. David manages to hit him with a rock of his sling. Goliath lays there bleeding.

Does he walk away? Or does he cut off his head with a sword?

As for media, even if it were dying, rather than shrinking, why would you relent in attacking a corrupt structure? Isn't it just laziness and complacency to not do so?

 

[Sweetpeaa]

I'd argue that mainstream media has a ''right wing'' or pro business slant more so in recent times. Covid for instance is a lot worse than what's being reported to healthy individuals and much more contagious. In 2009 swine flu was right out reported to have the potential to kill young healthy people. There didn't used to be much of an agenda back the and corporations had less control over society. Be fair to disagree with me but in the last decade human life has mattered less and less to government officials and it's now about appeasing business.
