Anyone blaming "the media" automatically gets an eyeroll from me these days. It's really the laziest form of criticism available. People desperately want there to be some left-leaning media consensus that they can bash but in reality usually the person criticizing hasn't been personally spoon fed the information that they are arguing against. The biggest media outlets by industry include Fox News for TV, Joe Rogan for podcasting, Ben Shapiro and Dan Bongino for text media according to Facebook so no there is no monolithic left leaning "media" consensus.
