Parties absolutely have access to these outlets.
We all have to be blind to think that if Biden request WP to write something positive, they wouldn’t? Same with Fox and Trump.
Does the govt use influence to persuade news outlets? Of course they do. Any major news outlet that says they are 100% independent and doesn’t have some percentage of outside influence is outright lying. Does the Whitehouse (in general) use press access passes as bartering chip, yes of course! With that said, “state-affiliated” depends on criteria. Whether it’s agreed upon or not, Twitter set their criteria. Other outlets set their criteria as well…on news, politics, health, and illicit. |
