News reporting should match the interests of the community. I think these threats to public media are indicative of planned polarization by politicians and political pundits. We have a right to dissent against the dominant social narrative and that begins w/ the outlets who support diverse reporting

There’s an interesting dilemma at play— First United (Jones affiliate/ rival bidder to Onion) offered more $$ that would eventually go to Sandy Hook families, but would likely re-establish the site as a source of dis-info. So, reparations to the families hurt by Jones or quell longterm dis-info?
