With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power.
The power to throw workers under the bus.
The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives.
The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

Anastasiia Yasagashvili, the Ukrainian collaborator who betrayed her family to the Russians
Sentenced to 15 years in prison for high treason, Anastasiia Yasagashvili collaborated with Russian forces after her village was occupied, before becoming a double agent. The investigative case file she provided to Le Monde reveals the journey of a young woman who had lost her way, for whom the war became a playground that fueled her love of adventure.

Ashley Moody has never had to ask a single Floridian for her job as Senator.
She’s letting corporations walk all over us. She refuses to debate me. She’s never answered for the $10M she took from sick children in need.
