Billionaires get to enjoy their own farts and working class reading that gets a bit more garbage into its consciousness. Being abhorrently stupid doesn’t hurt anybody (except for maybe the advancement of humanity as a whole)
arguably the stupidity in their press is a form of psychological warfare to worsen the thinking capacity of the reader, can’t have the rabble thinking dangerously good thoughts (like those contained in Marxist texts).
