These stations are all owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group, if I'm not mistaken.

Yea those news stations are all owned by one company and the anchors were all required to make that pro-Trump statement.

Pretty much any time you're looking at a screen, someone is telling you what to believe.

To be fair, they're not entirely wrong. Misinformation *is* a threat to democracies... granted, it's usually the media pushing that misinformation.

Exactly. Unless you're pouring over data points and making connections and inferences yourself, there is a very likely chance that some type of bias, automatic or intentional, is being spun into the message.

That's an amazing piece of art. They're from opposing "political channels".

They keep everyone fighting in their own little groups about meaningless things, but they fucking own it all.

Yes, and it's not just the media either. Politicians and government agencies frequently try to tell people how they should connect the dots. And all of those narratives inform the general public who, in turn, try to pass along narratives to one another. It's why you'll hear the same talking points parroted by supporters; a few years back, liberals constantly brought up Somalia as a need for government overregulation, for instance.

They're from local affiliates of those larger networks (and specifically television stations owned by Sinclair media). The national outlets are the ones with the more sustained, opposing biases. Individual tv stations carry some of the content provided by the national network (carrying on that network's biases) but also create their own content (which instead goes to the station's or station owner's biases)
