American media in all its forms is shifting perceptibly rightward

the entirety of the anglosphere; along with the rest of the global north; is shifting rightwards

They wondered why right-wing provocateurs were winning the authenticity wars over their left-wing counterparts and how the Democrats had managed to get themselves tainted as the party of finger-wagging, uptight school prefects.

None of these developments, taken individually, guarantees that American journalism will become a mouthpiece for the Republican Party. But collectively they create a climate in which the boundaries of acceptable debate shift rightward.

this article is bizarre in how it ignores (or is unaware of) the social biases present in the united states against leftist platforms. if they had known, they would already have answers to such questions.
