NBC Out was the queer one.

They fired Gayle King.

They did some stuff that frankly sounds like a joke.

I'm just going to read this quote from The Root.

And the CBS News Bureau in Johannesburg, South Africa has been shut down with coverage of Africa shifting to London.

That is, again, they closed the South Africa Bureau, the CBS Bureau in South Africa, and moved their coverage of Africa from Africa to London.

If a hardline Marxist ideologue had written this in 1967, no one would have believed them.

And in the process, what they've done here is they've destroyed the NBC outlets that were responsible for doing a whole bunch of coverage for different groups of non-white people, right?

NBC-BLK or NBC-Black did a whole bunch of very good coverage of the uprising in 2020, right?

NBC-Asian America did a bunch of good work.

NBC-Out was a place where you could occasionally find a trans person who was allowed to write.

And all of that is gone because one man, Larry Ellison, and his son, David Ellison, bought the fucking media company and installed this unhinged right-wing hack as their ideological secret police.

I don't even know what you would call this position, the ideological purge executor, I guess you could call it, of CBS.

Now, obviously, there are multiple aspects to this.

We'll talk about Larry Ellison himself in a second because he is a very important figure.

But first, before we talk about the consolidation of capital into increasing monopolies, let's go hear from some of those monopolies.

Products and services, let's go.

We are so back.

One of the obvious driving factors behind what has become a right-wing fascist takeover of the media has been the consolidation of capital into increasing monopolies.

Now, it's been a very, very famous thing in the U.S.
