    None of the companies want to “censor conservative” views. It’s just that, in the current moment, more conservatives believe in nonsense and conspiracy theories, in part due to efforts by nonsense peddlers like Jim Jordan.

    This is my favorite quote.

      You know what is a terrifying thought? If media companies thought they could make more money peddling lies and conspiracy theories, they absolutely would. Truth only gets published because it is currently more valuable than lies.
