What's Wrong with the News?

Independent, aggressive and critical media are essential to an informed
democracy. But mainstream media are increasingly cozy with the economic and
political powers they should be watchdogging. Mergers in the news industry
have accelerated, further limiting the spectrum of viewpoints that have
access to mass media. With U.S. media outlets overwhelmingly owned by
for-profit conglomerates and supported by corporate advertisers, independent
journalism is compromised.

Ultimately, FAIR believes that structural reform is needed to break up the
dominant media conglomerates, establish independent public broadcasting, and
promote strong, non-profit alternative sources of information.
