The public only reads headlines and news from outlets they have read and agreed with in the past

It would be an interesting experiment to try and capture this audience. What I would like to do if I had the cash is start a whole network of alt-news outlets (mainly short form videos, say 1-5 minutes hit pieces and editorials), that are all heavily pro-regime/neoliberalism/faggotry.

And then over time, network by network, bit by bit, morph those into anti-regime outlets, acting as a pipeline for unbrainwashing.

I've seen this executed at the individual level with a few outlets, but controlled-opposition theory means you can't trust those outlets by default, even if they're now saying things that make sense, because it could always be a ploy to get buy-in from the public.

I think a broad umbrella network of outlets all pursuing this strategy would face strong pushback and be a big success if it got off the ground.
