      I do not misconstrue anything, here. Public property is accomplished from within the ownership of government, a news organization being a worker coop doesn’t mean it is immune to bourgeois influence.

        true, and a government being elected also doesn’t make it immune to bourgeois influence, and especially not to influence from the politicians themselves
