I don't watch old media that much anymore. But you can just follow the money; who is buttering their bread. Usually its their advertisers, or potential advertisers. Or anyone who has a lot of money that might be thrown their way.
It has nothing to do national loyalty, commitment to democracy, human rights, anything like that. Its the money.
@Pat I'm not even talking about propaganda really. it's more like what the news decides to show and not show. honestly though, I don't know how those decisions get made in news rooms
