One factor I think was that the (non-conservative) media thought Clinton was going to win anyway, so by attacking her with invented scandals they made the race tighter and more exciting and covered themselves against accusations of bias.
Sort of like what Comey said his rationale was for leaking the letter: "I thought Clinton was going to win anyway so leaking the letter wouldn't matter and I could get the Trump supporters in the New York FBI office off my back". Though in not so many words of course.
