That's not always the case. The mainstream media - both the news media and entertainment media more broadly - was extremely accommodative and deferential to the Obama administration largely because he was on the mainstream media's political "side".
Given this, many actions taken by the Obama administration that would have dominated the news cycle as impeachment-worthy if taken by the Trump administration were simply ignored or brushed aside by the Obama administration's media allies.

- jedberg 7y agoYou mean like the impeachment worthy scandal that Fox News was all over during Obama’s two terms? The one where he wore a tan suit. Or the one where he asked for fancy mustard? They were so hostile to him they had to find minor offenses to scream about. And even his “friendly” press threw him under the bus for drone strikes and border detentions.
