@shadowfals @artemis I know him from the book/concept Manufactured Consent, by Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman, describing "how mass media acts as a propaganda tool for elite interests to shape public opinion without coercion. It posits that media outlets, driven by profit and corporate links, filter news through five mechanisms—ownership, advertising, sourcing, "flak," and ideological, commonly anti-communist, filters—to manufacture public agreement on policies like war and corporate agendas. " (That's an AI summary in quotes btw)
