I ask because many many conservatives dislike the MSM with a passion. However, from my point of view I see the MSM being a byproduct of a capitalist society that conservatives swear by, and push hard to maintain. I Simply feel like when you constantly put profits above people, eventually someone's going to loose luckily from this I think it has the potential to be a major learning experience. In this case I don't feel like the conservatives are the only ones loosing it seems as if we are ALL loosing as well. OTOH how can we blame the media as they are doing simply what we allow as a society. Sensationalism wins every time, and the media has learned this and is profiting from it. As a captalistic society can we blame them for making money a legal way? What solutions are there to solve our problem. After all United we stand divided we fall the founding fathers got this, but I hope majority of Americans come to understand this as well.

The MSM is hardly a result of capitalism.

Crony capitalism/ state coporatism?

Yep.
