This is why sinclair is being attacked. They are the same as Bloomberg media but conservative. Where is the outrage that Bloomberg is abusing his media empire? Both are manipulative barons.

ss: I think its dumb to see these wealthy people attacking their political Opponents when they themselves are just as guilty. The owner of sinclaire is a dick but he is doing exactly what Bloomberg is doing. Bloomberg has spent 40 million since the florida school shooting to push his agenda. Bloomberg is behind this attack as Sinclair is their rival. Lets call them both out and make changes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_D._Smith

Look at ted turner and his empire. He's a member of the nuclear threat foundation. These are the people who Tptb go to to pitch their control so we don't revolt or try to compete with them. The poor are to be led

People are worried about Sinclair taking over the majority of local news organizations in the States and forcing them to run partisan must read scripts, which would basically make most local news organizations propaganda mouth pieces from just one mouth.

Bloomberg is doing the same thing but for liberals.... I think they both need to be broken up.
1 politicalconspiracie 2018-04-02
Bloomberg owns majority of local news organizations and forces them run partisan must run scripts?
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
Yes. He is a media partner with NBC. He owns about 30 affiliates.

Sinclair Broadcast Group new logo.svg Sinclair Broadcast Group is the largest owner of television stations in the United States, currently owning or operating a total of 173 stations across the country (233 after all currently proposed sales are approved) in nearly 80 markets, ranging from markets as large as Washington, D.C. to as small as Steubenville, Ohio.

Do you have evidence of them forcing them to read these types of partisan scripts that's similar to what viral recently?

And now you are accusing me of being one sided.
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
Look at the Iraq war. Liberal media and conservative sold the same lie... You're being one sided man. The evidence is easy. Google Bloomberg NRA and fox news NRA....
1 politicalconspiracie 2018-04-02
Do you not see the difference between a few major propaganda news sources coming from just a few mouth pieces, and that the majority of people see it either as propaganda or at least partisan, and one propaganda news organization owning a a large majority of local news organizations and forcing them to push out propaganda pieces? Especially when traditionally local news organizations are non partisan and just focus on local news issues?
1 David_St-Hubbins 2018-04-02
Do you have a quick compilation of bloomerg news affiliates reading out and identical script?
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
It wouldn't be hard to put together... Youtube march for our lives (CNN msnbc abc) they had the same "buzz".
1 David_St-Hubbins 2018-04-02
So you don't have a quick compilation of bloomerg news affiliates reading out and identical script?
Interesting.
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
Actually.... Here is conan CBS repeats, bloomberg owns CBS affiliates. Soo there ya go...

Do they? Sinclair sure does. I'm not seeing any evidence of any of your claims at all.
1 godlameroso 2018-04-02
Not even close, Charter/Spectrum owns many more stations, of course Reddit won't talk about it as their parent company is invested.
1 russianbot01 2018-04-02
This explains the inorganic votes yesterday.
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
Bloomberg Clooney and Winfrey are all behind the march for our lives and have set David hoggs media tour for gun control. Notice how hoggs talking points are Everytown talking points? He is a PR agent now.
1 truspiracy 2018-04-02
The "inorganic" votes from yesterday are explained by the fact that Republicans only read the title and thought the story was on their side. Now that a few of them have actually read the article, they've changed their minds.
1 LosJones 2018-04-02
You can only talk about left wing conspiracy here, or else you will be downvoted into oblivion. Anything other than that will get you labeled as someone from the donald. This is a shit hole of a subreddit now.
It's honestly becoming a "conspiracy" arm of /r/politics. Fuck this place. Look at those 61k upvotes on the first Sinclair thing. You couldn't make that look organic if you tried.
1 vivek31 2018-04-02
You learned about a corrupt media company by going viral and you're upset because?
1 bhybrid 2018-04-02
Sinclair was posted at least 3 to 5 times yesterday on this sub. All had a lot of discussion. I am not seeing what you're seeing.
1 Enigma2090 2018-04-02
No one talks about how all MSM outlets get their 'news' from two sources which are Associated Press and Reuters. This whole Sinclair stuff reminds me of the stink that is #metoo and Weinstein. A bait and switch smoke screen of some sorts. We all know what the true problem in Hollywood is and we all know what the true problem in MSM is.
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
Its corporate warfare. They are battling for control. They'll run a blitz on their opposition for an industry standard. Like a drug dealer setting the police on his opponent to get more sells even though he is selling drugs.
1 Enigma2090 2018-04-02
I agree. Like I said though it seems like a bait and switch of some sorts. Controlling the leaks if you will.
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
Getting ahead of the story... I'm pretty sute trump is going to do an EO for media so this is getting ahead by attacking conservative media. Now when trump changes shit, the conservative media can't get a by. I'm happy bc equality says all shoukd be held to the same standard but some conspiracy is brewing
1 bradok 2018-04-02
I'm not sure how this got turned into a partisan issue in the first place...it's just further evidence that the Corporate Propaganda networks are utterly fucking corrupt. No one should trust a word that CNN, ABC, MSNBC, Fox, WaPo, NYT, LAT or anyone else has to say. They're all Corporate Propaganda mouthpieces, manned by talking heads patronized with their jobs.
The Free Press is mostly dead in this country.
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
You can go to jail for free press if your info hurts national security. I'm an Assange supporter so its funny they havent hit him with that charge if Russia sent him stuff. That's why I think it was Israel.
1 vivek31 2018-04-02
It died a long, long time ago.
1 Drake02 2018-04-02
It's reddit in 2018, if anything can be forced to be a partisan issue it will be, and it will be against anything right leaning (because apparently that's Hitler now).
1 godlameroso 2018-04-02
I dislike you but agree with you. Have a vote.
1 bradok 2018-04-02
Glad we could reach common ground. Any particular reason you don't like me?

You're ok I was just saying it for effect.

Yah and whaddabout URANIUM one???
1 showmeurboobsplznthx 2018-04-02
I honestly think uranium 1 was a part of obamas reset with Russia. The reset allowed America to do business and now that the reset was trashed, they are attacking tgose who took part that weren't covered by national security is being an insider. Thats all bull shit. Obama cut Israel off and 4 mobths later all democrats info was leaked and swayed that it was bad. Its all manipulation my friend
1 helpivebeenbanned 2018-04-02
Go make a compilation and I'm sure people would notice too
1 ibtar 2018-04-02
How many local news stations does Bloomberg own? How many people could they potentially reach with a single broadcast directive? I estimate Sinclair could easily reach 50 million people, possibly more, depending on the stations they own.
1 Abe_Vigoda 2018-04-02
Sinclair owns a bunch of ABC and FOX affiliates. Disney owns ABC and is trying to buy FOX. Disney also panders heavily to the left and has a large stake in Vice media but they're about as liberal as Trump.
There's a couple different scenarios. One is that the video came out organically after someone saw the repetition in the clips and just made a video of it. The second is that the video was released intentionally to mess with Sinclair.
Disney could have done it to drop the share price on the stations Sinclair owns, so that Disney could incorporate them but that'd be risky because it could make the public aware that they do the same thing.
1 godlameroso 2018-04-02
Funny because Disney is owned by conservative interests.
1 Abe_Vigoda 2018-04-02
Disney is purely capitalist, same as the other networks. They aren't left or right, that's just a front image.
1 truspiracy 2018-04-02
All media conglomerates are conservative. One of the biggest lies of our time is that there is a "liberal" media. On social issues, yes, they will keep us arguing, but when it comes to economics, they are all conservative and very much so.
You want to see "liberal" media? Watch some Thom Hartmann.
1 Otto-von-Bolschitt 2018-04-02
what utter garbage, and I bet I can prove it by your own words (assuming you don't go back on them in 5 minutes): are these media conglomerates capitalistic?
1 truspiracy 2018-04-02
Just give me us counterpoint, smarty, instead of your "utter garbage" and your preemptive attack upon consistency.
Here's some help: capitalism is capitalism. Liberalism is liberalism. There is some overlap.
1 elcad 2018-04-02
Bloomberg doesn't use my local public airwaves.
1 Bongstradamus 2018-04-02
Bloomberg doesnt reach over 50% of local broadcasters in its network like Sinclair. Bloomberg also primarily covers financial news. Sinclair also benefited from the FCC removing rules that limited local media ownership since Ajit Pai was put in charge under Trump. So not only do they own a majority of local media markets, but regulations have been pulled back allowing them to do things like coordinate messaging across all of their local outlets.
If they are allowed to buy Tribune, they will own 70% of local media markets. The FCC doesnt appear to have any concerns.
