Instead of buying election ads, buy the whole paper

Facebook is spending millions to plant left-wing activists in local media, Daniel Greenfield writes, including KOSU and Oklahoma Watch.

Report for America is eliminating what little difference there is between the media and political activism. It’s not alone in the field, but it’s the most successful organization and has the best financed of any of its rivals. Its founders have seen the bright future where journalism is a vestigial limb of political nonprofits who instead of buying election ads, buy the whole paper without having to manage it or pay taxes on it.
