Re: the real Bill O'Reilly...
Sadsack, I cannot find it now but there was a book about "left wing media"
The author interviewed James Baker (HW Bush's secretary of state) and a bunch of think tank insiders. They basically admit the entire "the media is left wing" was a planned long-term strategy - a Goebbels style campaign, with that mantra the centrepiece, to be repeated by all at every opportunity.
The instigators knew and admitted there was no meaningful left bias.
IMHO there's been no "rise of right-wing media", with the implication that right wing media was held down before.
A much more accurate description is "the rise of media that's more right-wing than what came before".
