Opinion of mainstream media

[TJ in Oregon]

Truly awful. The media collectively--both ideological media like Fox and faux-impartial like CNN have done damage to this country that will take decades to fix, if it is ever repaired. The complete reduction of every story to fit a narrative (or simply the reporting of narrative with no story at all), the total lack of awareness about their own philosophical assumptions, the endless pedantic drivel in the face of whomever reaches their crosshairs, and their sensationalist leapings from one shiny distraction to the next have greatly assisted in pushing the country to outright hatred of the opposite political side, to the point where any equivocation is treated by the masses as apostasy. The fact that most of them hate Donald Trump is hilarious considering how hard they worked to get him elected, intentionally in the primary and unintentionally in the general. The American people do not fully understand the degree to which the media is destroying this country.

And that also goes for most of the Alternative Sources.
