    Here.

    Hopefully, all Leftist attempts to quash Diversity of Opinion would fail.

    Alternative Media has a great potential to grow with people dissatisfied with Biden Administration.

    I am not Conservative -- I do not care if America is "great" or not. I do hope that Freedom and Diversity of Ideas will prevail over Censorship.

    Yes, quite possibly. The same formula of non-stop attacks on the Pres Trump that saw the rise of several alternative left-wing media outlets could be easily put to use by Newsmax or others on the right against Pres Biden. It will be interesting to see not only just how saturated the anti-Biden media market will become but as to what lengths it will go to sustain itself. I mean we had a gargantuan amount of moonbat conspiracy nothing burger sagas come from the left-wing media over the last four years. Will right-wing entertainment-media match this in the four years to come? If it generates revenue I think the answer will be a solid yes.

    Hopefully.

    I am neither Conservative nor Liberal. I do not care if America is "Great". I do not support guns. I am against White Nationalism -- I am Jewish.

    But I hope there is Diversity of Opinion.

    LOL! Conservatives going from a network that lies to them 50% of the time to one that lies to them 80% of the time. Talk about confirmation bias.

    Liberals are very sensitive and thus experience trauma due to the fact that Conservatives watch channels they do not approve of.

    Hopefully, Diversity of Opinion will not be stifled. Newsmax is a bastion of Free Speech.

    Both sides are guilty of some fake news.

    If Strong Conservative Media is destroyed, then Free Speech and Free Market of Ideas are destroyed.

    And, on the proposed "Trump TV" it will be LYING 99.99% of the Time.
    (They might furnish the correct time, occasionally)

    Lol. What on earth is a "bastion of free speech?" I mean, I don't disagree. That a thing like Newsmax exists proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is a bastion of free speech. (Not so free though. Heavy click bait.)

    Yes, we Americans are free to entertain ourselves with whatever conspiracies we want. Who shot JR? Lol. Have fun at Newsmax.

    Big deal? so what?

    If you want to debate "whataboutism" about the NYT or WaPo, feel free to start a separate thread.

    This thread is about Newsmax.

    Seriously? You Leftists actually believe the NY Times, or is that you still think there was "Trump-Russia Collusion"? Either way, it's a sad sad statement about you guys.

    I don't have guys. Your misinterpretation of the Mueller report is a reflection on you, not the NYT.

    Trump has been able to lie constantly for 4 years, no one stopped him.... and no one stopped people from correcting his lies, though Trump is trying to punish those that corrected him and Trump is the government, is that what you want from our government?

    "Lawmakers Barrel Ahead On Defense Bill Plans, Balking At Trump Veto Threat"

    https://www.npr.org/2020/12/02/9415...fense-bill-plans-balking-at-trump-veto-threat

    ""He's not vetoing over Section 230," Warren told reporters. "He's just trying to use the NDAA as a way to punish companies that he thinks are not pushing his propaganda.""

    Trump is willing to put our national defense at risk to hurt these companies and take away our freedom of speech, cause you can bet, you take away protections from tech companies, they are gonna censor you like crazy, they will have no choice - this is how censorship happens, when a dictator with a fragile ego gets upset with criticism

    luckily Trump will be out in January and if he won't sign the defense bill, Biden will

    Of course, The Left will do everything they can to censor Newsmax and Parker. The more these platforms grow the harder it will be to ban them.

    Support gun or not, they are here to stay.

    As for the topic of this thread, more diversity of opinion in news would be a good thing.

    They will pressure networks to drop Newsmax. Nevertheless, the more popular News max grows, the harder it will be to replay form them.

    Nothing misinterpreted other than your interpretation.

    The collusion delusion had you fooled.

    you mean like the President call them fake news and threaten them all the time like Trump does?

    can't have it both ways, if it's not wrong if Trump does it, anyone in government can do it - that is the problem with the Trump Presidency, he made this all seem normal, and the right ate it up
