10. And have been yet another big media player to show they are full-blown MAGA.

I'm sure most of us around here knew about Sinclair, but to the vast majority of Americans that are not nearly as politically informed, they would be watching the rightwing-biased crap that these stations pump out and not know that they were watching outright propaganda. That's why so many Americans have a completely warped view of what has been going on. They are only now waking up to it because the terribleness that we predicted with this administration is impacting their daily lives, and propaganda isn't nearly as powerful when you have real world experience that disputes it...

People should remember this the next time they are quick to blame Democrats for not being better messengers. The vast majority of outlets that Democrats have to rely on to get their message out have shown to be either (1) dominated by fascist friendly allies of Trump or (2) so afraid that the fascist's wrath will turn on them that their actions end up being no different than those in the first category.
