I read a pretty good article on this, it started years ago, when conservatives started laying the foundation of the media being liberal biased and hating conservative.
I forget the group that started it, but one of the main guys that started it, now regrets it.
Their point was to prove how the media points more liberal than conservative...
But what it has become is that a large number of conservatives won't believe any reported facts until it agrees with their preconceived viewpoints. So they're just getting buried further and further into conspiracy.

@Viper Can you remember where you read it ?

@RodionRomanovitch No, I won't be able to remember where I read it.
I was trying to think what company that first anti-media group was, but it's slipping my mind until I heard it again, but the guy had brothers invovled as well.
