There needs to be a fourth option for voting. Some media is spun to the left, some to the right. Very little mainstream media offers raw data, facts, or truly neutral analysis. All of the largest media congolmerates broadcast information that contains some amount of memetic tinkering. The media in the U.S. is biased because it is intended to uphold an over-arching corporate agenda that can easily use conservative or liberal ideologies to sow discord and confusion within the population at large.

I made the same argument. However, the counter-argument would be that that would basically be a claim that the media is not leftist in its orientation, which would be a conservative bias on average.
