I think it is just a matter of following the money. Who actually owns those news outlets? If not outright ownership, is money changing hands from some other source?
That, I believe, will likely explain things. IF it can be uncovered. I'm sure such controlling interests will try to cover their tracks as much as possible.
Obviously the news outlets are no longer independent and able to do what realistically minded people should expect from them. Heck, I remember growing up with Walter Cronkite being THE spokesperson for ALL news. Maybe I was just young and foolish, but he seemed so damned BELIEVABLE. You WANTED to believe him. If he said something, it was absolutely the truth. Or so America believed.
Now, there is no one that I would be willing to put in a class even close to him. All the news just seems to be blatant propaganda and viewer bait with poorly covered up agendas and prejudices.
