Steve, MSM is short for 'mainstream media'. What did you think it was short for?
Maybe not so much BBC, I would hate to malign our friends across the pond, but definitely CBS and the NYT have both been guilty of shilling for the politicians. As have NBC, ABC and every major newspaper in the US. So has NPR, for that matter.
Mainstream reporters are so afraid of 'losing access' that they'll say anything the pols tell them to. Except for some sex scandal, when was the last time you ever saw a mainstream reporter call out a politician?
Which is why, sadly enough, I get most of my news from Jon Stewart.
