    Most mainstream outlets lean pro-Democrat, but that’s still extremely right wing. Dem or GOP leaning, they all defend capitalists above all.

      Fox news is the largest media company in the US with 43% market share. Newsmax is at 10 and Oan is at 7. That’s 60% right wing not including non traditional media like Joe Rogan which has more viewers/listeners than CBS/NBC/ABC news.
      (Joe Rogan at 14 M. CBS has 4M, NBC 7M, ABC 8M)

      So mainstream media is Right wing. Additionally unlike left wing media which will criticize anyone, Right Wing Media is extremely Trump loyal. So on one side you have criticism of left and right while Fox/Newsmax/OAN only criticize the left. This creates a right wing bias for mainstream media.

        Ok. Having a larger audience share doesn’t negate that most outlets are pro-Democrat.

          Yeah, that makes sense.

          “Just because there are non-right medias means the entire industry is pro-left. Nevermind that right wing news makes up a literal majority of the news people actually consume - it’s the number of companies that matters.”

          Singularly the easiest way to show you don’t understand how numbers work. And you vote. No wonder America is dying.

            We’re talking about the number of left-leaning news outlets. Not audience numbers. At no point did anyone dispute that most traditional media viewers are conservative. Try to keep up with the conversation.

        Yup. Sinclair is conservative, but these are still considered “local” outlets, even though they’re all now owned by the same umbrella corp.
