The Baltimore Sun purchased by Sinclair’s David D. Smith. The left is apoplectic.

Good or bad?
Bad. Sinclair media group is who owns a large portion of the fly over local news channels and news papers that parrot the 3 letter 4am talking points.
We shall see.
If he is true to his word, and not just blowing smoke it would be good, but time will tell.
Better than the current situation, but we'll see what happens. The local stories focus on Smith being a "conservative," but this a state where Larry Hogan is considered a conservative. One local website reported he tore into his new staff and told them they should be more like the local Fox affiliate he owns (I have a link, but behind a paywall). For what it's worth, Fox 45 has committed actual acts of journalism with their Project Baltimore series exposing the corruption in city schools and local government. They were instrumental in the state school superintendent's decision to not seek a second term. Still expecting any Maryland conservative outlet to be never Trump, but it may be a step in the right direction.
Iirc the fox 45 series was back when I lived and taught down there in BCPSS. interesting!
maybe the Jury is out on this one. The left is acting like its a BAD thing but who knows?
