Democrats, if they regain power, need to investigate these large media monopolies... [View all]

...and use our anti-trust laws to break them up.

The reason we are getting people like Kimmel and Colbert fired is because these big media operations want favors from the government so they can become even more wealthy and powerful than they are at present.

Their primary motive is their bottom line. They are not loyal to anything or anyone else. They are a threat to our First Amendment and, in effect, a national security risk.

They rush to contribute money and to kiss the ass of Donald Trump, because he will give them what they are looking for.

The American people should have no fear of the "liberal media". That is just a term created by the conservative media to distract the people from the truth. When media operations such as Sinclair and Nexstar own about 80% of all local affiliates in the country, we have a problem.

They need to be de-monopolized.
