Liberals cannot comprehend that their own media institutions are free from bias. They can demonize Fox News and any foreign press, but they never think too critically about their own. I think because if you admit “the news media I consume is ideologically in favor of the status quo and frequently manipulates public opinion,” then you admit you’ve been fooled. They need to believe the smartest people are in charge, otherwise they themselves will feel stupid. And if you have material comfort, then there’s no reason to challenge the status quo if you have a constant barrage of media telling you how bad “the other side” is.
