What specific taxpayer funded media are you referring to?
How about you name any western media that does not exist through advertising media & in time of economic downturn or covid19 lockdowns government advertising?
@FrayedBear Try to concentrate. I know it is hard for you to concentrate, but pay attention to the question.
The question was what TAXPAYER (not advertising funded) media are you referring to?
@Alienbeing Here in Australia much media advertising whether tv, radio or newspaper during the last two years of covid lockdowns has been government advisory, regulatory & self promoting paid adverts as commercial adverting has been severely curtailed. Has the same not occurred in USA?
@FrayedBear No it has not. More you don't know.
@Alienbeing No wonder you have so many dead from covid19.
Capitalism is not interested in friends only a strong client base
And that is how stupid they are.
First rule of selling is to try reselling to previously satisfied customers. America has many potential world markets unsatisfied because of the wars, the disruption, the mass displacements of humanity & the disastrous use of petro chemicals & wasteful use of oil resulting in atmospheric & eco damage frequently resulting in human genetic damage.
@FrayedBear Staying out of World war two until late 1941 cured the great depression for the USA, selling parts, weapons, vehicles, Plastic airplane cockpit covers and fuel to both sides.
George Bush snr's father made his fortune building the rail links to the "Work" camps for Hitler's government in the 1930s. One thing about Nazi scum, they paid well and on time, especially to the USA.
It was not until Hitler's fortunes took a turn for the worst and they stopped being able to place orders that Roosevelt began decrying "the Nazi beast" instead of going directly to war with the Japanese empire as had been expected.
@LenHazell53 I note that the usual suspects are having problems responding to this thread.
