are loosing viewers and eyeballs to alternative outlets....
Notice that the first offensive against alternative outlets is to question their accuracy, which is another way of questioning their legitimacy. If the outlets are not "legitimate" then they can be marginalized and silenced.
However it is becoming more difficult to silence alternative outlets because many of them are reporting accurate news more quickly than traditional outlets.

Seems to me that's exactly what "alternative" media attempts to do regarding "mainstream" news media, and is a big part of Trump's strategy.
Exactly which alternative news outlets do you choose to get your news from?
The Real News Network looks excellent to me. Another one that looks good so far is Blacklisted News. Almost all "news" sources seem to be a combo of news and opinion. The two mentioned seem to care about accuracy. There is Mother Jones and The Nation. T456

Yo BH, that was awesome. An excellent, concise takedown of the controlled media. I have been looking for more sources of real news. I'll keep an eye out for these guys in the future. I really loved how they brought up the issue of the corporate news screaming about all the fake news out there as a diversion tactic. Two very sharp kids. Thanks, Tweaker456
