I got news for you narrative pushing lemmings no one is listening anymore. Huge percentages blame the media for the hostility with their one sided bullshit. Another huge percentage thinks the media misrepresents facts or simply makes them up.
"A massive poll of 20,000 participants undertaken by the Knight Foundation and Gallup found that Americans’ hope for and trust in an objective media was all but lost by 2020. They saw not only an ever-growing partisanship in news reporting but a determination by the legacy media to push a political agenda instead of honestly disseminating the news.
This poll was one of the most devastating indictments of the media in polling history. Some highlights:
84% of surveyed Americans laid either a moderate or a great deal of the blame for partisan hostility at the feet of the media.
Further, 82% believed news outlets are either deliberately “misrepresenting the facts” or are “making them up entirely”.
This is further amplified as 79% of those surveyed said media outlets are trying to persuade people to adopt a certain opinion about an issue or an individual.
Similarly, while the respondents in the poll believed that the media is “critical” or “very important” to democracy, 86% say they have witnessed either a fair amount or a great deal of bias in news reporting. Damningly, 78% feel that this bias is reflected in the spread of fake news which “is a major problem” that exceeds all others in the legacy media environment."
Bottom line is the influence you think the media has simply is not there anymore. And sourcing them means next to nothing.

The Legacy Media Has Passed the Point of No Return
Joe Biden’s one major accomplishment during his calamitous tenure as president is to abet the legacy media in their head-first dash into permanent and irretrievable disrepute. The legacy media’s self-prostitution in concealing and downpla...
