Hated and despised Murdoch before Trump and I will continue to after Trump. The brainwashing of Americans for profit needs to end.

The reeducation of America, not like the GOP wants, which is dumbing down, but facts upon facts upon facts. Go to the library and read the printed version of facts not the AI version that we get shoved down our throats.

Great book about this, though somewhat dated due to the passage of time and Al Gore's internet invention, it makes its point even 45 years later. "The Powers That Be" (1979) by David Halberstam; Review by Kirkus https://tinyurl.com/yfxexj78

Halberstam's [target] are the prime media magnates--Paley of CBS, Luce of Time Inc., the proprietors of the N. Y. Times, L. A. Times, and Washington Post. Plus their rattled or raging front-men, star reporters, spouses. . . . Halberstam ... manages to tighten the net around recent traumatic events: Vietnam and Watergate. ""All of politics has changed because of you. . . you guys in the media,"" LBJ charged.

I hope and pray they go out of business, the Fox News is the most disgusting propaganda entertainment company ever! I had to set parental controls to block them on all of mom’s devices, wish they would just disappear

As soon as I got YouTube TV, I removed all national Fox channels from the channel list. So nobody can watch that despicable propaganda at our house. And I have some relatives who are Trumpers. One day my brother in law was over and said, “I can’t find Fox News on your TV.” I told him, I got rid of it and he can’t watch that channel here. He just looked at me like I had two heads. Whatever!!!

I can't watch anything from Fox >cough< News. Except when Ben is there to make a point and bring us back to sanity. Ha-ha, no sanity from Hannity.

Living on a pretty limited income, so I’m not able to afford a paid membership, but I share your YouTube videos far and wide. Repost to X and add links to them in comments sections everywhere.

You and all your crew are proving every day that what Americans really want is the truth! We are tired of being lied to, tired of having our rights and our freedoms attacked by this regime, and tired of news media who have forgotten what it means to stand up for truth and justice. Too many have played it safe, out of fear or self interest, but we still have a few good journalists out there who are willing to take the risk of asking the tough questions knowing full well that the wannabe dictator and his minions will be quick to try to silence their voices, condemn them for being

“Fake News” any time they ask an uncomfortable or unpopular question. Those reporters are the ones we need to protect and support and call out to praise. The brave young woman who asked why the president would host the man who ordered the killing of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi and refused to be intimidated by the president calling her “fake news” and defending the indefensible, deserves our utmost respect. Protect her at all costs!

People like Rachel Maddow who consistently shine the light of truth into the darkness of these fascists’ schemes to undermine our very democracy.

People like Beau of the Fifth Column and Belle of the Ranch who bring critical thinking and common sense to bear on the daily chaos and deception of this regime. These are the people who we need to lift up and fight alongside! I was so thrilled to see Bryan Tyler Cohen join the Meidas Touch network. I love how he always includes links in his link tree to organizations and things that people can engage with and take positive action around. I discovered Indivisible and was able to make calls before the 2024 election because of his linktree links. I encourage everyone at Meidas Touch to incorporate this practice if you’re not already doing so. This is how we build a strong, grass roots movement that will support and sustain our communities and our freedom.

Thank you all for all you do and please continue bringing truth and justice to all of America!
