I think you're setting up a strawman there. What he's saying is that media organizations are intentionally ignoring issues that would stand out by themselves, but choose not to cover them because of certain characteristics of the offenders. This leads to extremism as people who rely on those sources for news coverage end up completely misinformed about the world and find people discussing matters to be doing so out of some form of ism and 'fake news' rather than because it may be an increasingly serious problem. And it also fuels extremism on the other end as they also see the lack of reporting as 'fake news' and it fuels questions about the motives involved in not covering these issues. In my opinion, this quite rapid shift from the news trying to inform people (though of course there some lens of bias) to the news quite overtly trying to control people's actions is probably playing a major role in the rapid and, arguably deserved, deteriorating trust in the media. But that destruction of trust from the sources with the resources to carry out impartial reporting is doing nobody any good.
