This, unfortunately, is what the West has had, for a long time now, a corporatist globalist media, at least in part since perhaps WWI.
Some would argue since 1789 really. I have to generalize, in this very brief account, quite a lot.................
Where did it begin? It began in the French Revolution.
Let's just put it this way for the attention challenged, The French Revolution and Napoleonic Era did not end well for the West, although at the time that has been the general impression given, after 1815.
We have been in its very long shadow ever since.
At some point, after Napoleon, in the 19th Century, this ideology of an international leftist liberal or socialist Jacobin order of the French Revolution morphed. It did so even before Napoleon.
It was turning into liberal bourgeoise, but still vestigially imperialist, and nominally still aristocratic in part Western capitalist internationalism.
This in turn became transformed into nationalism, sometimes with a leftist edge which still favored internationalism, but the memory of Napoleon had left a bad taste in the mouth for Jacobin internationalism, and, moreover, the liberal bourgeoise post Napoleonic capitalist and imperialist core continued to endured and even flowered, even with the simultaneous rise of nationalism, so long as it allowed free trade, which had been sanctioned since 1776 by Adam Smith.
The liberal internationalist capitalist bourgeoise order, still also monarchist and aristocratic to a large extent, is that from which the corporatist globalist media arose.
If Bannon wants to deconstruct the administrative federal state, he has nothing left with which to make America great again, except 50 different state governments and their respective local parts, and a federal military, assuming he wants to keep that, or else revert to 50 state militias.
