Most US media have a self understanding as brain washing machines. Their disagreement is not about whether brains should be washed, but about the brand, smell and tint of the detergent. And don't get me started about schools.
It seems to me that the current left subscribes to the idea that reality is a social construct, in the sense that facts are arbitrated by discourse, and thus the creation of the best reality requires taking control of the outcome of the discourse. Vox is outvoxing Fox.

Fox made it acceptable. They won a legal fight to be able to broadcast lies because they classify their content as entertainment. Facts and truth are optional. Why should the left be bound to truth when the right is not.
