The Republic has fallen.
Ironically because of Republicans.
Who are apparently anti republic and democracy. What a strange world when you reps are anti-government and also ready to lock up anyone else who is.
Which is why people should support independent media. Fuck these companies that only care about money. TV is had been in declined for decades and they are close to 6 feet under.
If any of these people actually wanted to preserve their brands, they should hold off on any mergers for a while. I realize they are looking to make a fast buck in most cases and can barely see past the next quarter. But still.
