Why? Why are so many organizations (media etc) aligned with the left? What's in it for them? If it's $$, why don't the Republicans simply pay them off also?


One good reason:

Because their owners want it that way. I am not sure why they want the media to be so left wing, as I’m no mind reader, and it’s the actions of only a handful of actual people that decide these things. Your guess about that is as good as mine.


Also, perhaps the Class/Professional Allegiance of the Media and Political Class explains it. For decades now, we have a lot of senior officials and politicians and lobbyists and media figures and media managers all married and carousing with each other.

So they do each other favors, until the last weeks when they say "Okay, I helped, but now I gotta report more accurately so I keep my reputation". This also benefits the Media because they can say "Tune in daily, look how fast races can change! Our next segment is sponsored by Merck..."

Another source of favors would be professional/data networks to be shared with amongst them. "You get me an exclusive with CEO, in return I will run these bullshit polls you made on the show I'm producing and hype you up, I'll even have you come to talk about them. But you gotta set me up for half an hour with Mr. CEO."

a recent poll from the New York Times that showed only 8% of Americans were worried about the “The State of democracy” heading into the midterms.

Different but kinda similar poll, very different results.

59% of respondents specifically replied that the corporate media poses a “major threat to democracy,” with 24% indicating that the corporate media poses a “minor” threat to democracy. Only 16% believe there’s no threat to democracy.

According to a Just the News report, the attitude towards the corporate press was “strikingly bipartisan.” 95% of Republicans, 83% of independents, and 70% of Democrats describing the press a threat. By contrast, only 38% of Democrats consider the media a “major” threat, whereas 80% of Republicans and 53% of independents view it as a threat.


Its good to see that widespread people now see the media for what it is.

CNN is trying to woo you back. Despite new management, CNN+ is in the toilet along with regular CNN. Fuck those assholes. It's just about eyeballs and advertising money. Let them die.

I won't put it past the American left to steal the elections in enough states to make a difference. They stole the election for #FJB, what makes anyone think they won't do it again? The media is complicit. The media don't care as long as everyone is made to tow the line.

I pray I am wrong, but I have lost the faith. Doesn't mean I don't vote. I still do. Yet now, I've seen the ugly side of America.

My fingers are crossed.
I plan on celebrating the day if the Democrats get their asses kicked.
This Twilight Zone episode has gone on long enough.

In a prime-time debate against then-businessman, now-Gov. Glenn Youngkin, McAuliffe said, “I don’t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.” This crystalline statement of Democratic insouciance toward ordinary people’s interests detonated like a grenade. Youngkin could hardly have believed his ears or his luck. His campaign rolled the tape again and again in TV commercials, dooming the hapless blue candidate in a blue state.

I have another theory why Youngkin won. Unlike the 2000 campaign, Republicans in the last VA Governor's race had manned all precincts. That manning prevented the Dems from padding the votes in western VA counties. That is important because Fairfax County had 30,000 unsigned mail-in votes they could throw into the hopper. But since the Dems could not cheat at the precincts, Younkin was ahead by 85,000 votes and that Fairfax vote dump would have been useless. In 2000, both Trump and the VA Senate candidate were well ahead at midnight. It was wee-hours vote dumps the next morning that put them behind.

Biden's speech at Union Station seemed to be promising to deliver the mid-terms to 'save Democracy', but it might take a little while so be patient.

They need to be crushed and stop all the crazy shit. Unfortunately I think the left has went to far to correct.

California will vote blue no matter what. Democrats can be raping their kids in broad daylight, and theyll just excuse it as gender orientation and vote blue. thats what i think of the left. feel bad for sane people stuck tbere. on a bright note, bar is low as fuck, easy money.

Let's just see and watch the mail in ballots in close elections. If the Dems cheating machine is still active like in 2020, then I suspect all the close races will go predominantly to the Dems like Senate races for Nevada, Georgia, and Pennsylvania.

It will be interesting to see the percentage of mail in ballots for the close races like for Georgia, and compare it to the percentage of mail in ballots in the 2020 election.

With Kemp leading a lot over Abrams, it will be of interest to see how Herschl Walker fares. The libertarian candidates are a lot more similar to Repubs (i.e., same on taxes, regulations, guns, COVID lockdowns, anti-Woke religion, pro-oil and gas, etc.), so that is a major factor.

Also notice there are no Green candidates. That's because the Green Party essentially has been absorbed by the Dems.

Or threatened not to run a candidate. In North Carolina, the Dems actually went to court to keep the Greens off the ballot.
