It's funny how you see things so clear on the left, but on the right you're totally blinded.
The left pretty much owns the media so it's their voices that get magnified the loudest. And when they go too far, they're not held accountable. The left are such goddamn hypocrites, if a righty did even half the shit they've done since the election we'd never hear the end of it. What happens to right wing sites that publish "edgy" content? (edgy as defined by the left since they're the self appointed guardians of civil discourse) They get shut down.
1) The left doesn't "pretty much own the media".
Fox gets about 50% of the viewing figures. Yes, the left owns MORE TV news stations than the right, because the right all watch one show, and the left watch lots of different shows.
2) The top selling newspaper in the US is owned by Newscorp, that's right wing Rupert Murdoch. At nearly 2.4 million copies a day of the Wall Street Journal.
That doesn't qualify as "pretty much owns the media".
Not held accountable? Really? Are there not laws in place that prevent things like libel?
Hypocrites? Well, most powerful people are hypocrites. On the left and the right. It's not a political side thing, it's a political thing, or are you going to bullshit me and claim the right isn't full of hypocrites?
Well, sites get shut down all the time. I don't know which sites you're referring to or why they might have shut down. Breaking the law might be that reason, I don't know.
