    God you people live in an authoritarian wasteland of a country.

    How the fuck does the government have this much control over the media?

      wealthy oligarchs purchased the media, and purchased the government. so it’s not the government controlling the media directly, it’s just that they report to the same boss.

      would you like to know more?

          No, you are absolutely correct. No need to apologize.
