    "Freedom of the press" is a joke. I can see what our "free press" is doing with the butchery of Gaza. At a certain point you have to accept that your understanding of the facts is not, and has never been unmediated.

    Here is a good starting point if you want to understand the ways this has happened and more critically evaluate it.

        “All over the world, wherever there are capitalists, freedom of the press means freedom to buy up newspapers, to buy writers, to bribe, buy and fake 'public opinion' for the benefit of the bourgeoisie.”

        Can you make a coherent argument from their position, or do you not understand your own boogeyman?
