I think media dishonesty may be partially at fault for people watching and reading less news in mainstream media. I find it interesting that you post a chart that shows Murdoch owning a bunch of Fox affiliates along with other media right of centre, but most of mainstream media actually veers left. That in of itself seems to show bias too, even if subconsciously.

There is indeed a conscious bias in news reporting. And news items on social media sites are even much worse. Lots of unfounded claims and counterclaims.

Absolutely. I'm really hating social media now. Everyone thinks they're experts based on some meme or 2 minute soundbite. If you try to explain the details, they call you a troll and block/unfriend you. :-\
