This seems very much like a bribe

bediger4000•1h ago

I agree. Why don't the media sites report on these bribes/settlements as bribes?

There is difference between news journalism and opinion journalism. In news journalism the goal is to inform public accurately of what happened. Opinion journalism does the analysis, commentary and point of view.

News journalism is hated because people can't be trusted to make their own opinions. You describe facts of a bribe and people just don't get it.

What people want to read:

Marxist: "The Capitalist Shell Game: Tech Oligarchs Pay Tribute to Their Neo-Fascist Puppet"

Democrat: "Tech Platforms Cede Ground to Trump, Caving on Content Moderation"

Center: "Trump's Legal Strategy Pays Off, Exposing Weaknesses in Big Tech's Defenses"

Right: "YouTube's $24.5 Million Payment Confirms Big Tech's Unjustified Censorship of Trump"
