Auster on the Totalist Media
The totalist media control over the American mind is not, of course, limited to issues of race.But whatever the issue, the media exercises this all-embracing control in promoting the alienist view of the world, in presenting facts that support that view, and suppressing facts that contradict it. To sum up: (1) The media, the most powerful institution in American life, systematically broadcasts lies, mainly about white “oppressors." (2) The media uses quasi-totalitarian methods to promote those lies. (3) Those lies and that method are aimed at further destroying America’s European-based culture. (4) Conservatives believe that this campaign of cultural destruction is nothing more than a matter of “bias,” which they imagine can be fixed by adding more “balance” and “fairness” to the proceedings.
The conservatives don’t see, and don’t want to see (because that would mean recognizing that America is no longer a free country worth “conserving”), that the media bias, and the dominant culture of which it is a part, is totalitarian.The Thinking Housewife

"The media, the most powerful institution in American life...."
====================
Only if you let it.
Otherwise, it's harmless, useless even.
