Conservative swear up and down that the media has a liberal bias, and thus skews everything to a liberal worldview. Additionally, Conservatives believe that the liberal media is constantly oppressing, belittling, and ignoring conservative voices and ignore (some might even say celebrate) the continuing moral, economic, and civic decay of our country.
Liberals think that the media are whores for their corporate masters, and thus never report any "real" news (such as the crimes and corruptions of corporations, connected politicians, and foreign officials). Additionally, the media never report the "real story" behind any event, as it might offend advertisers, corporate overlords, and/or powerful politicians who control who can say what on the air.
Are Conservatives and Liberals talking about the same media here? Either the media is run by leftists (as the Conservatives believe), or the media is run by corporate lapdogs (as the Liberals believe); you can't have it both ways.
