Get the Social media mug.Like a “Hive Mind”, the majority of major media outlets (specifically in America), promote the same points of view and re-worded information in effort to sway the population.
In America specifically, all large media outlets have a blatant left-leaning view, and often cooperate with each other to form a central agenda of presenting progressive ideas as positive, and conservative ideas as discriminatory.
Many signs of bias are not specifically in the wording of news topics, but in the tone and presentation of them. When questioned about their stories and coverage, they will deny withholding information, and use each other as sources to show their “trustworthiness”.

Ex: *Riot at the capital*
“Man, the Media Hive is really pushing this whole idea of it being a coup... even though if it was an ACTUAL coup, there would have been a lot more deaths and a massive firefight, but since all people hear is “coup” from every source, they will start to believe it and see Republicans as national enemies.”
Ex: “The Hive Media is undeniably existent if you look at who owns what. “Alphabet” is the parent company to Apple and Google, which both cooperate with Facebook in “antitrust actions”. And if you didn’t know, Facebook owns Instagram, WhatsApp, Oculus, and other smaller projects. This all basically means that the majority of the internet is influenced by a handful of people that all decide what media sources you see. If you don’t get how search results work; whoever pays the most to these companies get the top spots on searches, so media companies that have large amounts of viewers (money) will indefinitely stay in a position of power over the population.”
