*******
Actually it has. What used to be referred to as “The Press” may have always leaned left but today’s MSM uses technology in all its modern forms to propagate its liberal propaganda. For example, the selective use of video is a very powerful tool to convey messages and advance agendas.

Also, in the case of Barack Obama being the first black president, the MSM has shown a particular desire to protect him to an extent never seen before. They simply cannot let him fail and they shamelessly go to extraordinary lengths to shield him from any criticism.

The media’s job is to be skeptical and to question the intentions and policies of those in power. However, they have completely abandoned this role and in fact serve as soldiers that guard the liberal establishment.
