In the 1960s and 70s, lefties like Nader et al. screamed about the biased capitalists at the "corporate media." Meanwhile, corporate PR guys screamed about the impossibly biased "liberal media." Describing exactly the same 3 networks and 4 newspapers. Plus ça change.

Liberals for the last four decades: It is an absurd oversimplification to say the media are trying to help Democrats get elected. Liberals now (at least here): The NYT and WP are trying to get Donald Trump elected! Unsubscribe! Plenty of flawed coverage, but the conspiracy theories are silly.
