That's bad enough, but it's actually worse.Problem with that chart is that it assumes USA is a democracy and the press is actually independent, but in reality USA is as much an oligarchy as a democracy, and viewed by that standard, the majority of the press is owned by the same ruling class that control the government.
And that would make USA more like for instance Turkey.As I mentioned before, they've managed to keep up the appearance of a free press way more than actually being a free press.Democrats may criticize Republicans and vice versa, but when Democrats began talking about taxing the rich, some key press leaderships were quickly changed to more Republican leaning.
Actual press freedom in USA is dead.

















Absolutely, but that is back in the Tesla S days, before Trump was elected the first time.And Elon Musk has gone more and more insane over the years. And now USA as a country is becoming an enemy, and Tesla stands for everything bad about Trump.
USA becoming an unreliable partner became clear November 2024. And Crystal clear within months of Trump taking the presidency.
