From bugging Republican candidates to trying to overthrow elections to taking orders from foreign tyrants, Democrat leaders today are indistinguishable from the gangsters they revere
Implicit in the law enforcement claim that they need access to a phone in order to see who the phone's user has been contacting is hilariously false. Carriers keep records of connections they make for their customers.
When the richest businesses want political help, it isn't to "level the playing field". Businesses support regulations that BLOCK competition, snowflakes.
The answer's transparancy & à la carte programminig
Cable content packagers want to bundle a burning bag of crap channels with each channel consumers actually would pay for. Viacom pioneered it with CBS as bait, Disney copied them with their ESPN, Fox uses their popular cable news channels. Cablers should offering the content packages that are available to them, straight up. Charge what content companies demand, plus a percentage, for each ordered channel, but nothing for unordered packages. Disclose it to consumers who don't know real reason good channels must come bundled with "Bravo" or "Nickelodeon" or "Comedy Central" trash.
Anti-American spies have compromised "official" communications. That said, when WH wants enemies to know something, they'll surely use Democrat-controlled media.
"we've noted time and time again how the vast majority of consumers support net neutrality" Uh, when did you say you called "the vast majority of consumers"? 'Cause, you know, I missed that call...
NPR is crap. Worse, it's crap supported with my grandchildren's taxes (all of mine and my children's having already been spent.) The clueless commentators of NPR giggle incessantly at whatever misunderstanding they have that day of the news and economic reality, generally. And, in between laughs, they nod & tell each other they're brilliant. It really is funny, I suppose, from an outsider's point of view--the image of the clueless, glib radio hosts laughing at the people they've helped to rob...
Just say "No!" to more government interference with private business. When you want something, it's faster and cheaper to arrange for it yourself rather than badgering some bureaucrats to get it. And, as a bonus, the quality of the product you buy from a free market is better!
Glad to see ESPN being proactive to keep their college sports revenue-generator running and producing for college athletics. If pricing is monthly, like most streaming outlets, I can watch all of football season for the price of one ticket to the game, then bail. On the other hand, if the pricing's annual, ESPN generates three times the revenue, and I still buy. Hope they go monthly!
