i get the point but i don’t think these stations are at all making the claim in the title lol. ownership influence is pretty common in media and that’s why we use “independent journalism” to distinguish journalism that isn’t influenced by capital rather than somehow as a label of authenticity.

also not a meme?

Exactly. None of these stations are independent.
