Websites, radio stations, podcasts, and so forth ought to be stood up by party members with access to moneyā€”the Harris campaign and associated groups, by the way, spent about $5 billion losing this electionā€”particularly if they can replace genuine local news that has been gutted by private equity and Facebook, or if they are centered on subjects typically neglected by liberals like sports or gaming. The core strategy is to set up publications with progressive views but likely to have broader appeal. Honest partisanship should be the standard, rather than a pretend above-it-all ā€œobjective journalismā€ that in practice means bending reality completely beyond recognition to benefit Donald Trump.

    Iā€™ve tried it all: modals, banners, rewording it, ā€¦ and, like, I get it. If I contributed a few bucks to every worthwhile thing, Iā€™d run out of money quickly. There actually is one at the bottom of every post right now, though itā€™s quite small, because Iā€™ve learned that it really doesnā€™t matter.

    Also, to be clear, I didnā€™t mean to complain or anything. I just wanted to explain the reality of the ecosystem as it currently exists, to the best of my knowledge.
