The introduction of cable-television news and Internet news made news a commodity, available from an unlimited number of sellers at a steadily decreasing cost, so the established news organizations became the high-cost producers of a low-cost commodity. They92re selling a hybrid product now that92s news plus news-helper; whether it92s entertainment or attitude or news that92s marbled with opinion, it92s different. Now, especially in the cable-TV market, it has become good economics once again to go back to a party-oriented approach to attract a hard-core following that appreciates the predictability of a right-wing point of view, but then to make aggressive and constant efforts to deny that92s what they92re doing in order to avoid offending the broader audience that mass advertisers want. Thus the Fox slogan “We Report, You Decide,” or whatever the current version of their ritual denial is.
