It has been a rough month for progressives. Not only did they take a drubbing at the ballot box, but now they must face the possibility that their favorite cable TV networks are hanging on by a thread. Lest one forget: The media outlets in America are primarily corporate entities. Except for very few instances, like the taxpayer-funded Public Broadcasting System, much of the left-wing media is owned and operated by corporations. As every red-blooded American capitalist knows, corporations are in business for one reason only – to make money. And that appears to be the crux of the problem for Comcast Corporation, which owns several leftist media outlets.
