Welcome to a new DML short. Quick hits of insight making you the smartest person in the room.

Troubling, and I mean seriously troubling, and it could be illegal on Apple's part.

I think the FTC needs to get involved very quickly and take a look at this, especially with midterms coming up.

There's a new report out by MRC, Media Research Center. They've been around for decades.

And what they do is they look at the bias in media and in news media, and they report on it consistently, and nobody has ever been able to take them down in terms of putting out fake news or fake statistics.

This is one of those times where the White House has to open their eyes and stop kidding themselves

which feeds into almost every phone unless you delete it.

Out of the 620 stories, not a single one of them came from a right-leaning network, if you want to call it that.

In fact, the study shows that there has not been one story through the curation of Apple News, not one story that would be considered right-leaning

against something like a Fox News since November 6. That's 96 days. Not a single thing.

So, although Tim Cook is pretending to cozy up to the president because he wants favored company status,

and by the way, this isn't an algorithm,

this is an AI.
