@FAIR

It's good to acknowledge the power the #media has over #PublicOpinion. It's all #propaganda.

Ever since #WalterLippmann wrote the book in 1922, media has been bought and paid for by corporate interests.

Who are the big donors influencing #FAIR?

To uphold our core value of independence, FAIR does not accept corporate donations. We receive annual grants from the Park Foundation, Tides Foundation and Cloud Mountain Foundation, but rely mainly on individual donors and small family foundations.

More information on our financials is here:

I think a lot of the discontent also comes from our huge wealth gap where average people pay more in taxes than the wealthy.

We address the possibility that people are more aware about the basic unfairness of the US economy. But that doesn't explain why people thought Trump was handling the economy much better than Biden.
