For decades the mainstream media has been manipulating the minds of their audience, to pay attention to what they highlight, telling those watching and/or listening what the media feels is important for them to focus on, while downplaying or completely ignoring anything that does not fit the liberal narrative the media wants to push.

That bias has been documented, and throughout the years the general public has slowly awakened to the manipulation, as can be seen in the tracking of trust in the media since the 1970s, where what was a high of 72 percent of public trust in the media in the late 70s, has dwindled to under 50 percent steadily by 2006.
