The media. It is their job, the reason for their existance, to tell the truth, report the facts, objectively.

But if we had a government committed to telling the truth and reporting the facts, then wouldn’t the press follow suit?

Those days are over. Objectivity in reporting is gone.

People have the right to elect the kind of government they want... it’s a free country. We have the right to object to some of the excesses...

The media in a free country can report however they want to - that’s what makes us free. But in the media’s case, since they should be governed by the laws of supply and demand - it would be in their best interest to report fairly and to present both sides. Their choice - but it they’re unfair, they’ll lose readers and viewers. Like any other business they have the right to make bad choices...
