1) if you think the media is monolithic that’s simply not in touch with reality.Isn't it normal to complain about a monolithic entity that constantly lies and mischaracterizes every thing you say or do? Come on WB, you can't be THIS brainwashed...
2) while the media is not perfect and has a bias towards conflict and sensationalism, the media you appear to be referring to is overall an honest enterprise trying to get it right. This is in marked contrast to conservative media, which has no interest in honesty or objectivity because conservatives project their own flaws onto others.
