Another way to say it does DS/BA actively use gossipmongering more than other franchises, or are there media with such a large ax to grind that they will always post negative information at a higher rate than other franchises?

I don't think disgruntled media, ownership, etc is more here than it is elsewhere, or than it was before Snyder took over. And "dry snitching" isn't more so here either.
It just seems to garner a stronger reaction here from fans than in other places.
I can't stress enough though that the majority of the media (of course there's always the outlier) does not enjoy dealing with losing/bickering teams. Those who've never actually had to work in the media and regularly cover a team think this is what the media thrives on-controversy, losing, etc. That could not be further from the truth.
