    I think peoples view that the increasingly partisan media has political aims is causing them to forget these are companies.

    They are making money (or trying) and they will say or do whatever furthers that aim. They are not out for the public good, they can’t be.

    If you want proof just look at CNN and their waffling in the last 10 years as they try to both sides shit so as to not lose increasingly shrinking cable news subscribers.
