It's a fact the mainstream media is staunchly bias in this case.

That sounds nice but in reality media organizations exist to make money and as long as that is the case they will pick and choose the angle to report.

Also, we need to start separating credible places like the AP and Reuters from media that tries to pass op-eds off like they're actually news. The lines between news and opinions are being intentionally blurred because they are getting results. Yeah, I get my news from MSNBC, but I stick to articles they are publishing that were written by the AP or another credible company like Reuters.
