Don’t forget the LGBTQ stuff.
Simple answer: Because they are Leftists.
did the FCC give them a license to lie and propagandize
and purport fiction is fact in order to control the country?
or was it more limited?
and why is the GOP -duh- so incompetent, uncaring,
and frankly stupider than the preening slime
they try to be like?
Why are CNN and MSNBC Such Cesspits of Racism and Bigotry?
They are democrats. Founders of the KKK and other thug groups.
Because they’re all part of the Ministry of Truth.
Yes. That has been the purpose of the FCC since the very beginning.
Roosevelt's relationship with radio was warmer. The key distinction was that broadcasters operated in an entirely different political context: Thanks to federal rules and administrators, they had to tread much more lightly than newspapers did. At its inception in 1934, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) reduced the license renewal period for stations from three years to only six months. Meanwhile, Roosevelt tapped Herbert L. Pettey as secretary of the FCC (and its predecessor, the Federal Radio Commission). Pettey had overseen radio for Roosevelt in the 1932 campaign. After his appointment, he worked in tandem with the Democratic National Committee to handle "radio matters" with both the networks and local stations.It did not take long for broadcasters to get the message. NBC, for example, announced that it was limiting broadcasts "contrary to the policies of the United States government." CBS Vice President Henry A. Bellows said that "no broadcast would be permitted over the Columbia Broadcasting System that in any way was critical of any policy of the Administration." He elaborated "that the Columbia system was at the disposal of President Roosevelt and his administration and they would permit no broadcast that did not have his approval." Local station owners and network executives alike took it for granted, as Editor and Publisher observed, that each station had "to dance to Government tunes because it is under Government license." Some dissident radio commentators, such as Father Charles Coughlin and Boake Carter, gained wide audiences. But radio as a whole was firmly pro-Roosevelt—and both Coughlin and Carter were eventually forced off the air for pushing the envelope too far.

Sorry for the double post.
Because it’s what they do best.
“I’ll take because they hate America for $200,Alex”
I think the best answer is their advertiser allow this behavior. Advertiser pay the freight without them there would be no left wing media
because just like for nazis, fascists, and marxists, collectivism, emotionalism, subjectivism, and relativism are necessary doctrines used by leftards to transition from ordered liberty, limited government, and natural right to statism, socialism, and force.
More Americans need to vote with their dollars and boycott sponsors of programming they don’t like
Who needs editors when you aren't doing real news anymore?
I used to like to sit down and read a long newspaper article on whatever event had just taken place - catastrophe or whatever, and I knew when I finished that article I had just gotten all the facts written in a compelling way. I understood what happened. The writer had either witnessed it or gathered all the facts and wrote it and got it edited for truth and clarity, and then they published it.
That rarely happens anymore. Everyone thinks their opinion is what matters, not the truth and its verification.
I miss those old days when it was difficult to figure out how the writer voted in the last election.
Satan.
Here is an example of a great article written by a great writer:

When a military man is one of theirs they dare anyone to challenge a “brave military man”, but have no problem trashing Pompeo and Flynn. Disgusting.
So funny because when you watch fictional journalists on TV series, the writers portray them of champions of the truth who would never post an article without corroboration. If only that were true.
