Unless you forgot..

The media has been caught time and again in collusion with the Government, especially the CIA. I don't know what makes people think the media is trustworthy, unbiased, and liberal. They sell whatever each administration wants them to.
The only real remaining 'free press' is the independent media. I'm sure that's just one reason the government is trying so hard to control and censor the Internet.
