But surely we're in a position where this supposed free-est of free press is mainly run by billionnaires. Journalists at them are hardly free, they have to conform to their masters. We don't get much neutrality, particularly in the printed media; it is driven mainly by very rich men and their agendas.

I suppose my idea of free press is that everyone deserves a voice, and I'd like to see people having a more equal voice, regardless of how rich they are or what school they went to. Supposed freedom of the press certainly doesn't allow for that. You're all for freedom of speech. What is wrong with some regulation to ensure more people and more different viewpoints have access to providing that speech without being drowned out by the wealthy and the establishment?
