Actually they should just report the facts and let the people have their own opinions. The media used to be the check on the government, now they're firmly on its payroll. When that happens, you lose all credibility. When you can't trust the news being reported to you to be unbiased, and not filtered through a political lens or some ideological slant, then it's no longer news, it's an agenda - which is exactly what I saw and experienced all through the election cycle and even now several months afterwards, with no signs of abating.
