CNN puts out propaganda aligning with US capitalist interests, they don't report literally everything.
No they put out wherever gets clicks, it doesn't particularly matter what it is there's just less that goes against the regime because they don't want to get sued by the toddler.
CNN is owned by capitalists, and thus puts out what these capitalists want to be put out. CNN is absolutely biased in these capitalist's favor.
Capitalists don't have morals or values. They worship profit and will do literally anything to make an extra dollar. You'd think .ml of all places would understand that much at least.
Correct, capitalists seek profit above all-else. Part of this includes propogating media with messaging and bias that supports them. This is an example of how cultural hegemony works. By controlling the media, capitalists direct society towards their own interests and ways of thinking, entrenching bourgeois ideology and bourgeois framing. You saw this with Iraq and the supposed WMD.
Yeah that's not how it works anymore. Media will put out wherever they think will make them money. Scruples aren't profitable and are therefore home the way of the dodo.
Media agencies both seek to make money and keep their owners in power. Do you think that when the New York Times capes for Israel and understates their genocide, that this is for engagement alone?
Yeah if we're just going for clicks, "HOLY SHIT THESE PEOPLE ARE NAZIS" is a much more engaging line of inquiry
