Corporate media companies think they are still independent entities, but their destiny is sealed if Republicans stay in power. The "accommodations" for the fascists will keep happening, until the media companies are so neutered and weak that the fascists won't need them at all, and will just take the remaining content that they want, and eliminate the rest. This is how it always happens with fascists, and it will not be any different in America.
