No they don’t. The exist because the fairness doctrine was done away with by Reagan which means the dirtiest lying sons-of-bitches on the planet can get on “TV” and spew utter bullshit 24/7/365 - and call it “news”. Opinion and newsmongering have obliterated “just the facts”.
It’s how you keep the human monkeys riled up.
