I agree with your main point. I would go a step further. Mainstream media outright lies. You're willingly covering your eyes if you think otherwise. We have our own false truths that we tell ourselves--you probably look at other counties or back in history and think we are somehow different from all of those people in this respect. The problem they have is that Facebook did not control the narrative as well as mainstream media--as your examples of Bernie and Trump illustrate. However, the "Fake News" campaign will change that and get them in the club with other media outlets. You can already see media's attitudes towards FB start to change.
