Everybody has their own media organizations.

This is both the law of averages, and also not relevant even if you had a good reason for saying it. I'm not saying the Republicans are any more honest than the Democrats (god forbid.) The Democrats are generally pushing for the same policies as the Republicans, except in matters that split their bases; we're still living in Reagan's world. Democrats are dominant now because they control nonprofits that are funded by the government and because they are supported by more billionaires. No other reason.
20 years from now it could be the Republicans in that position. It isn't like they don't have the ability; their takeover of state governments and redistricting is basically the same sort of tactic.
