When Chris Licht, CNN’s new chairman and CEO, fired Brian Stelter and canceled Stelter’s Sunday CNN show, Reliable Sources – which had been a source of intelligent criticism of Fox News, rightwing media in general, Trumpism and the increasingly authoritarian lurch of the Republican party – Licht didn’t just move CNN to the “center”, as he has claimed.

There’s no “center” in American politics. The so-called “center” depends largely on what the media decide the public should know and how the media present and frame issues.

And their decisions about what’s important to report, what facts to include or exclude, and the implicit choices posed, are becoming ever more concentrated in the hands of very few people – such as Elon Musk, Chris Licht, Rupert Murdoch and a handful of super-celebrities such as Dr Phil McGraw and Tucker Carlson.
