Mainstream news has always had bias, there have always been left and right wing papers or TV news, what has changed is that Rupert Murdoch decided some decades ago that reality was for suckers and it was the job of his papers and TV channels to pick Governments.
The irony of this is Murdoch is just so bad at picking them, he has given us a parade of shallow right wing incompetents in both the UK and US that have handed the world over to China because the right wing press no longer sees its job as to teach the voters to hold power to account,
