Back when it was the 3 major networks ( ABC, CBS and NBC) they had the fairness doctrine .
If an opinion or conclusion was offered, they had to give "equal time" to the other side.
Walter Cronkite rarely gave his opinion and simply stated the story of the day .
CNN started corporate 24/7 news , soon to be followed by Fox-news , and off we go.
Now, all the news networks need to compete for listeners to bring in ad sponsor $$.
As a result , opinion and editorial is renamed "news analysis" .
Most news shows, now have some form of bias to gain viewers.
It's like the ol' home team broadcasters in sports LOL.

Maybe if the media read what was actually in the "hacks" they would find what they are looking for...

Great article.
Denzel speaks the truth: Even actor Denzel Washington blasted the media last week saying that, "One of the effects of "too much information is the need to be first, not even to be true anymore."

But they are losing viewers because of their bias. That argument makes no sense. They are biased because of a Globalist agenda. And ratings have nothing to do with it.

Trump Steamrolls Silicon Valley: “Everybody in This Room Has to Like Me”
Vanity Fair
******
This is a good example of how the media, in this case Prime Muscle's buddy "Sloppy Graydon Carter" lies and twists reality. Trump made that statement after talking about the stock market and how much it had gone up since he became president. So, everyone in that room had to like him because they made a ton of money from him, not because he was strong arming them.
That's why Trump was rightfully pissed off.

Exactly. They collude, not compete. In their "business" it's no comparison for $$.
