What is outlook for freedom?

Posted April 08, 2018 1:00 am

Sinclair Corp. is about to take control of the corporation that owns WGN. They are similar to the Fox News Corp. in that they are far to the right politically in their views. This will leave this area with two media groups with nothing for reasonable Americans to enjoy. They are nationalist/fascist in their philosophy. Fox has had a great impact on Americans who were not alive during World War II.

Those of us in our late 70s and 80s or older remember that the two national leaders of Germany and Italy wanted to rule the world. We are not talking about a just leadership. We are talking about ruthless, heartless men who would eliminate any opposition. We know that is Putin's policy.

What is our president's plan? When the airwaves are dominated by them, what will happen? When will a desire to understand our neighbors and an end to uncontrollable greed be a part of everyone's life?
