One could argue it is the other way around. That the Democrat party is an arm of the media. It seems to me it is the media that drives them.

As a young boy I learned that back in the 50's and certainly in November of 1963.
The MSM are master manipulators. They’ve done it long enough to know how to sway opinion, publish half truths that elicit desired reactions from a segment of the populace.
This is what my owners manual says about all this nonsense.
John 8:44 New International Version (NIV)
44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your fathers desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
As Trump said long ago, the mSM IS the oppositikn party.
Selective outrage...when they should only report the facts.
Selective reporting of facts...with selective ommision of them.
Selective curiosity of what they look into...based on party.
This is NOT journalism. This is not what a “free press” was supposed to look like or protect. There is only propaganda today. The only question is how long has it been going on? Years? Decades? Longer???
What is really shocking is how many, especially on the left, still don’t realize this.
