6:41Now Playing7 Billionaires Control What You See—And It's Destroying Democracy
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSeven billionaires now control the vast majority of online news and media platforms in America.
Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Rupert Murdoch, Larry Ellison, and others have consolidated unprecedented power over what information reaches the public — and they're using it to shape politics, suppress dissent, and protect their own interests.
In this video, I break down:
– Who these seven oligarchs are and what they control
– How media consolidation silences progressive voices and amplifies MAGA
– The algorithmic manipulation keeping you in information silos
– Why corporate news can't be trusted on Trump, democracy, or oligarch power
– What happens when billionaires decide what counts as "news"
This isn't conspiracy theory. It's documented oligarchy. And it's destroying your ability to make informed decisions about democracy.
