You are correct about the two duopoly apologetics.
I should have made it more obvious I was talking about White Knight Syndrome, where ‘I’m not going to let you continue’ is used instead of pushing back with more information.
You don’t seem to have grasped the nuance of the conversation though.
Pushing back with more information is only a viable strategy when all parties are participating in good faith.
When the guest demonstrates a clear intent to spread obvious misinformation to further their own interests, discontinuing the conversation is the only recourse.
To say the same thing another way, the host did rebut the guest, but the guest carried on without responding to the rebuttal, intent on using the show as a platform to spread misinformation.
You may be right.
I know I can be wrong and I try to learn from mistakes or bad habits.
Yes, communication can be hard and I and others may react with emotion or just to reply quickly…
I know I do that, as well as other humans.

I do not agree with that point, but who knows how I would react. It is legacy media so sounds bites and time limitations might be the real cause for no pushback.

You are most likely correct, but I have little to no reason to be an apologetic to the duopoly,legacy media, or the owner class.
Let me guess, the OP will choose to ignore this extremely relevant critical response.
If you are ever tempted to use the phrase “two duopoly apologetics” to make a point, you’ve already lost.
That is true for you and maybe others that think and agree with your world views.
Apologetics come in all forms, the duopoly has many!
I’m making a point about vocabulary. You foolishly assumed I cared about the argument you were making, or shared any facet of my opinion on the subject at hand.
