80's and 90's you had very light propaganda, but even CNN was maybe left leaning, but it was still news. NOW, it is straight bold face lying. You turn on one channel, and it is precisely the opposite of what someone on newsmax might say, its insane.
Ironically CNN had a brief period of straight unbiased reporting in the 2000's IMO, right after FOX News became top dog. CNN tried to move to the center and be the standard-bearer for objective reporting and a counter-weight to the infotainment "right-wing" FNC. They went off a progressive cliff in 2015, but normies still think they're in the middle.
That honesty-dishonesty cycle will continue to repeat in media as long as we in the public keep turning our critical thinking skills over to them and believing whatever comes through the TV.
