The answer is simply corporate media. The collaboration betweenthe two fostered it and entrenched it. ‘Fact checks’ only serve to preserve ‘the narrative’ these networks promote together day to day, week to week. Grass roots and alternative media got their growth from thumbing their noses to ‘the narrative’, so media needed a way to fight back and preserve their perceived ‘infallability’, so they got ‘fact checkers’ (just journos, oftentimes from the very networks they protect) to play the same game back but with the guise of being a “third party” who is “impartial”.

Weird how conservatives don't think private companies should be able to do what they want.
You all sound like ANTIFA.
Make people do what we want or they're the bad guys.
Big Tech really is the bad guys though.
millions of others who bitch about them still go on their platforms every day and make them billions a year.
Mainstream conservatives are CUCKS
