Sadly this is how the vast majority of Americans think. Many of my friends think that networks like ABC, CBS, and NBC are the gold standard for news because they're "unbiased" even though that could not be further from the truth. "If it were true than the media would have reported it by now."
Not true. Their ratings are miniscule relative to the population of actual voters. Moreover the gold standards in polling PEW Research and Gallup show Americans do not trust the media.
Our experience is with the online political community that is manipulated by Big Tech and presents a false picture about sentiment regarding politics and media. The Libtards that are actual Americans are the minority.
The problem is that most people will tell you the msm is biased. They believe the story is mostly true but has a slant towards one political leaning based on who you watch.
They don't realize it's far worse; the media fabricates entire stories and or suppresses entire stories to the extent they are nothing but a propaganda machine.
Once they see how bad it truly is, it changes everything...but it's getting people to see it that's the hard part.
It’s funny how they think that left wing media is just biased but have no problem thinking that right-wing media just makes shit up. They don’t realize that CNN and MSNBC make shit up all the time.
True about this being a good chance to redpill conservatives. It's a shame because you'd think 911 under Bush and Clinton stealing the nom from Sanders would be a redpill moment for Libs, but not as many paid attention. Still, people can't unsee what they've seen: more and more people are awakening to the very real problems that are not driven down party lines.

I agree and it blows me away. It's borderline religious how the so-called news networks are put on a pedestal and seen as THE standard for truth!
Really this is going to shatter their reality. Straight up sledgehammer to glass.
Not for all of them, or even most of them. They'll think of it as an attempt to overthrow democracy.
They have shouting that for four years. They don't even like Democracy they just want their party to dominate at all costs.

I agree with you. The MSM is like the tiny man behind the curtain blowing smoke and talking through a loudspeaker.

Cargo cults is what it is
That's what my dad says when I point out some major political points that are set in the background of the MSM...
