The problem is not and never has been a "liberal" media, it is, was and ever shall be, the lack of a "liberal" media. "Liberal" meaning "open-minded" and "truthful". "Conservative" meaning "narrow-minded" and "clandestine"

Synonyms: unbiased, progressive, unprejudiced, liberal, flexible, tolerant, easygoing, impartial, broad-minded
TRUTH:
Synonyms: reality, fact, accuracy, genuineness, precision, exactness, legitimacy, veracity, truthfulness.

CLANDESTINE:
Synonyms: secret, underground, covert, concealed, stealthy, furtive, undercover, surreptitious, illegal, sneaky, sly, underhanded, shifty
