Yes but how do you do that when the supreme court has ruled that money equals free speech?

There's lots of people who can see that money in politics is the problem. How do we solve it though?

Wait for a supreme court judge to die and hope their replacement aligns with our views on this topic?

Petition the whitehouse?

Fund a kickstarter campaign to get our own people lobbying for this?

Fund alternative media whose cost structure is much lower than TV networks, e.g. this TISA explainer video on banking, public services regulation and corporations, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wwkikCpQ6pk . The Young Turks is the top online news show on YouTube, I wish they had episode transcripts. There is a related PAC to reverse Citizens United, http://www.wolf-pac.com
TYT isn't really news in that they require the news to function. They comment on the other news gathering interests. So they can't really standalone.
