You already said you only care about today so you go off and see who owns Fox.
Do you think the media is the same today as it was 50 years ago? I never said I only care about today, history is very interesting to me, but when you are talking about who currently controls the media, you can't talk about how it use to be and pretend it is still the same today.

Well I am talking about the present, not historically.

Yes, I am talking about present day, you assumed that meant I don't care about the past when it comes to media. Do you not pay attention what is going on in the present day in the media because you are only talking about the past?
When the press deliberately and voluntarily omits bad news that makes their heroes in government look bad (as our mainstream outlets regularly do), does that qualify as "freedom of the press"?
(BTW, remind me again how hard the press has been trying to find out how many have signed up for Obamacare from each of the target groups (young & healthy, old & needing health care etc.), and how many reports they have filed on the subject? Compared to, say, the number of reports they've filed on Justin Bieber?)

The ratings are the reason why new media talks more about Bieber than what is going on with ACA. If there isn't enough popularity in a topic that can attract viewers, then it isn't a topic that they wish to talk about. Much of our media is in the entertainment business, not the journalism business.
I assumed you meant what you said .politically once again the homogeneous population makes it much easier. Politically there are no illegal immigrants and no minority .This is what you said we wanted to be like. Then you said you meant the laws now you say politically. It all goes back to a homogeneous population

Commonality usually gets consensus.
We have some states here in the US that are very homogenous in demographics.
Their policies are lauded by the left while their demographics remain unspoken.
