Problem Of "Echo Chambers" In Conservative States Skewing Their Ability to Make Rational Decisions

What is an echo chamber?

An echo chamber is when you control several sources of information and use those sources of information to spread news and ruors that suit your political and business agenda.
There seem to be only 2 views in the GOP establishment. The views of Dick Cheney and the Koch Brothers (both can be annihilated in public opinion based on their public records with the facts... the problem is that most conservatives don't realize that views they have are scripted by one of these two Oligarchs. Fox News/Business plays an instrumental role in the promotion of this disinformation). Here is how much information just one of these Plutarch's controls i.e. controlling sources of 'expert opinion' as opposed to the actual companies presenting the news: 
 This is presented by Senator Bernie Sanders (Note: The arguments against Bernie Sanders is also sponsored by the Koch Brothers so Bernie is outmatched by millions and millions of dollars).

Echo Chambers In The Conservative Media Presented By The Daily Show & The Colbert Report;

The train of planting News in the above echo chamber goes as follows - First story in the Wall Street Journal, Second Story in ...the NY Post and finally, news story on Fox News - Seems like different news sources commenting on a story but in reality it's ONE news story, created and promoted by the SAME news source.

2. Here is another example of a political echo chamber using multiple people for ONE view and on ONE channel. (And proof of demonization of the 'left' by this 'conservative' echo chamber - besides this one):

Above: 'Conservative' Echo Chamber through Murdoch's Network (using multiple books on one view, talking about one perspective ONLY on a network owned by one man, i.e. the new republican party is an invention using multiple media channels all owned by the same group. Ironically, or perhaps, intelligently, the 'left' (i.e. the networks NOT owned by Murdoch) are grouped together as having a separate agenda thereby creating the 'Us vs. them' dynamic.


3. Here is an example of using an echo chamber for JUST business reasons (i.e. Rupert Murdoch comes up with device and tries to sell it through his news channels):

6. Fox News is large enough in the US to be it's own echo chamber so they seem to create facts at will:
