Yes, and only one side is sucking up to fear. The only thing you could complain about about the so called "liberal media" is that they are allowing their economically conservative CEOs to neuter them too much.
I have a journalism degree. But I am not blind. Conflict sells adds, just like the NHL is legalized assault. But it is not good when a politician get involved in vilifying the press.
The press deserves to be vilified. They took a crucial institution, and turned it into a tool to manipulate people for money.
CEO's are rich. And rich trumps political ideology.
Let me ask you this, do you think the media is trying to inform their readers/viewers, or do you think they are trying to get readers/viewers? Which do you think is their priority?
