Can anyone offer some good links based on accurate info regarding the centralisation and ownership of the mainstream media.
I think one of the starting points of fighting back is to demonstrate to people that the mainstream media represent corporate interests now, not the people's.
Does this help?
Bill Gates’s stranglehold on the MSM:

I see the Conservative (& Labour) parties as part of the political problem in the UK. I don't think "The Problem" is leftist/liberal oligarchs (like Gates) as reprehensible as these individuals might be. Neither the Conservative party in the UK nor the Republicans in the US will ever challenge liberalism because at root they fully support it. They hold a globalist world view that requires them to argue on the same terms as the Left, using the same Leftist values. Any single issue campaign against the increasing Covid restrictions would have to avoid party political attacks on prominent liberals or lose support. The Conservative Party itself and its leading members are all 100% behind the government's policies, the rebels have no power.
I didn't imply that we are ruled by billionnaires (although we are heading in that direction). I said the media was owned by billionnaires. Thus to cut the snake off at the head, you demonstrate that the media is not to be trusted and people need to move elsewhere for their information. Once they rely less heavily on mainstream media they will see a more balanced rational picture not a fear driven narrative. The media is the key to everything as it drives opinion (See Noam Chomsky, Manufactured Opinion). Without the media, nobody would even be aware of a so called pandemic.
