How TF can we have our own version of a LW media be successful like theirs is, even if you had the $$ to do it? They spew nonsense and lies and whitewash what their people do and say. The left would never stand for that. It wouldn't work on our side.
A LW version of Fox News wouldn't work. A LW Joe Rogan wouldn't work. Our side doesn't get behind incel conspiracy theory bullshit. Or that we should run con man who can manipulate the media...our own version of Trump. It wouldn't work. That POS would've gotten bounced out of our party long before he belittled the disable reporter.

Agree. We cannot rely on any existing media to refute the lies and accurately report the news.

Right and they are " monetized". I have tried to explain this to my very gullible friend time and time again.

"Information ecosystem" is horrible babble. Wanting it to be "well-oiled" is crappy mixing of metaphors.
