I'm not even talking about Jeff Bezos or Lauren Powell Jobs or any number of billionaires who own any number of publications, but the editors editing business and tech reports who don't know anything about business and tech, or the senior editors that are terrified of any byline that might dare get the outlet under fire from somebody who could call their boss. It's fucking cowardice.

There are, however, I should add, also those who simply defer to the powerful, that assume that this much money can't be wrong, even if said money, in the case of Elon Musk, is repeatedly wrong, and there's an entire website about the wrongness and the lies and the bullshit. And I'm talking about Elon Musk still, obviously.

These editors are the people that look at the current crop of powerful tech companies that have failed to deliver any truly meaningful innovation in years, and they go, ooh, ooh, ooh, send me more, daddy, show me more of the apps. It's fucking disgraceful. Just look at the coverage of Sam Altman from last year. You know, the guy who spent years lying about what AI can do.

And tell me why every single thought he says must be uncritically cataloged. His every goddamn decision applauded. His every claim trumpeted as certain. His brittle little company that burns five billion dollars a year talked about like it's a fucking living god.

Sam Altman is a liar who's been fired from two companies, including OpenAI, and yet because he's a billionaire with a buzzy company, he's left totally unscathed. The powerful get a completely different set of rules to live by and exist in a totally different media environment.

Their geniuses, entrepreneurs, firebrands, their challenges are framed as missteps and their victories framed as certainties by the same outlets that told us that we were quite quitting and that the economy is actually good and that we're the problem for high prices.

While it's correct to suggest that the right wing is horrendously ideological and they're terribly biased, it's very hard to look at the rest of the media and claim that they're not. The problem is that the so-called left media, which usually is just the center, isn't biased towards what we may consider left-wing causes like universal healthcare, strong unions.
