In what ways is it the media's job to bring him down? The media's job is to report on things that happen, that's it.
It seems a little bit fairytale to paint this as some ground battle that the Daily News is playing. Again, not all media is equal, and taking a headline from the Daily News and commenting on the media as a whole (including many more respected papers) doesn't make any sense. Didn't you just accuse the "liberal media" of being petty? Now you're telling them to strike better? Stop buying into the liberal media junk, and just let reporters report the news.
The Times, the Daily News, CNN, Al Jazeera, BuzzFeed, Salon, Breitbart, etc... all of these outlets have completely different ways of covering "the news" and interacting with their readership. Your comment is applicable to the Daily News, because they made it their cover. For most media outlets it's probably exactly as you described: a funny blip in the middle of the paper (if covered at all). So the criticism doesn't make sense.
