Capitalism in action. Why don't we let the "free market" decide this one, folks?

The tiny orange hands of the market.

I feel like this isn't as damning as people hope it is.

The article makes it seem like as long as they have support from rich donors and some advertisers, they'll be fine. If the former pulls out they might have some issues, but until then they're still okay.

Not only is it not damning, its probably what makes them so dangerous. If you're advertiser-driven, you are, in a roundabout way, subject to the whims of the public. Instead, they're largely just a mouthpiece for what their wealthy funders want them to say.

now we just need to destroy his rich benefactors lives down to their very essence, until they are poor and giving cheap handjobs under the Brooklyn Bridge for a few quarters or a burger from white castle.

Nobody gets out cleanly from supporting this monster in Trump, Breitbart and the rest of his Russian loving ilk.

The imagery here... striking.
