YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“Now we have Paramount, Warner Brothers, CBS rolling into that. We have Oracle taking a big share in TikTok. You have Amazon buying up the Washington Post. You have Elon Musk buying X. It's basically the merger of social media, entertainment, and news — all under the umbrella of just a few billionaires who are all friends with each other, have basically the same politics, and then wrapped up in the illusion of choice.”

BreakThrough News Editor-in-Chief Ben Becker joins Zoe Alexandra and Rania Khalek for BT Live’s premiere episode, to discuss why BT joining forces with Peoples Dispatch is the next logical step in waging the battle of ideas against corporate media.
