"...In principle "the press" is not an entity but many diverse and contentious people publishing their opinions..."

I have to disagree. The way I see it; in principle "the press" is not an entity but many diverse and contentious people who should only be concerned with publishing facts.

That's the difference between news and opinion journalism. The problem lies when opinions and prejudices are deliberately passed off by reporters, and willingly accepted as facts by the public. That's where bias overcome news.

Yes.....but many times I see real "facts" published...but only in "terms" that the MSM Clymers want to publish them.

Their specialty is spin....Facts can be twisted, spun, faded, hidden, twisted..etc..etc..
