No more critical coverage of war like it USED to be done during Vietnam.
This is key. This is what changed when news divisions had to start being profit centers.

There ceased to be an adversarial relationship between News & Government/Big Business.

It's all been make believe ever since.

That's part of what makes all this dem vs rep, left vs right stuff (and how hard people latch onto it) such a tragic joke. It's all a fucking show, people! Bread & Circuses all over again
