I would also argue that Democratic “news” companies could fire people for views they deem unacceptable. Just that, for some reason, most “news” (actually more infotainment) companies for some reason tend to be conservative.
This is why this struggle is actually also about economic issues, i.e. what people own how much stuff. This is what should also be considered and tackled, somehow.
I definitely agree that ownership of news media companies is highly problematic. That’s why public broadcasters are so important - they are not beholden to private owners.
