I looked through my youtube subscriptions and had this thought. I don't boycott media outlets which critized this website. Not fully sure what I would do if I payed money for them. Maybe I would still pay for it if the quality overall was good. In German media there is barely any coverage about this forum. I have a theory for that but I won't elaborate on it now.
I read or watch for example BBC or The New York TImes sometimes. Noam Chomsky is a huge critic of the media. In a documentary he says probably the NYT has the best coverage in the world (best research abilities). Though this was some decades ago. Personally I also want to follow media outlets which contradict my worldview. I actively do that and I think this is important.
I think vice always was for me related to low quality reporting. I dislike their style of writting. I am not following the NYT that closely to make a final conclusion. I think American media outlets are too friendly to the powerful and too scared to attack for example the pharma lobby. But admittedly I like that the NYT has leaked war crimes. I think something like that is very important.
The BBC is for me famous for transphobia. I don't watch it as often. But I would probably be against defunding them when I was from England. I can't talk much about the BBC. But I like the media outlets in my country which are founded by the people. They are often left-wing and I am a lefty. Lol.
But of course I condemn the transphobia of the BBC. I just don't know much about the articles.
Do you know similar thoughts? Has anyone quit their paid-subscription due to the articles about this forum? I would be curious to know your thoughts on that topic.
