Y no non-global .... oops, I C Y.
Grumpy thought while trying to find "entertainment": Why hasn't a sharp media entrepreneur picked up the need for a NON-GLOBALIST radio or TV network? All existing media are globalist. Commercial, non-commercial, "right-wing", "left-wing", all indistinguishable, all Soros.
Lots of people in UK/EU/US would rather listen to pleasant noise that doesn't inject red-hot radioactive poisonous Soros Sludge into your brain.
Oh. By definition a localist network can't be large enough to make trillions in profit, which is the threshold for media entrepreneurs. Localist has to be LOCAL, or at best regional.
That still doesn't answer the deeper question. Before the 1954 Cohn Coup we had lots of truly local radio stations. Now, with lawyers and regulators conspiring in a Tribal protection racket, on-air broadcast stations would be prohibitively expensive; but podcasts wouldn't be hugely expensive. No need for sponsors. Should be possible with a subscription setup.
So: Y no non-globalist podcasts? [I don't mean short audioblog podcasts; there are plenty of those. I mean all-day streaming broadcasts.]
