What's amazing is how well the algorithms work to send the right news to the right people .... On Juno news everybody is on the same page in the comments section and on the CTV , or Global, or CBC literally everybody is on the other page ... You can't dislike comments and when I say anything opposing shortly the feed is gone .... Its a really great divide and conquer routine going on ... I think people need to become more vocal and support media like Juno news and Druthers newspaper or it will get much worse
