Excellent piece Barry. The takeover of the media verticals by ideologues, then employed to advance their agendas, is spot on, and very much what Orwell warned against.
The idea that the counter to misleading speech is more speech (made by the WashPo this week) is laughable given the scale and reach of these media platforms. It’s like saying one person shouting is the best way to counteract a hurricane.
Barry; as a Tabloid Publisher, I will take the fun of the circus over the boring lectures of the leftists any day. Green ought to be glad he gets a paycheck from a university and doesn't have to worry about merchandising his thoughts.

Typo alert. Need an update on the Speaker's name.
