"Donald J. Trump’s vision for the future of our nation is as deeply disturbing as it is profoundly un-American.

It is easy to find historical antecedents. The rise of demagogic strongmen is an all too common phenomenon on our small planet. And what marks each of those dark episodes is a failure to fathom where a leader’s vision leads, to carry rhetoric to its logical conclusion. The satirical front page of this section attempts to do just that, to envision what America looks like with Trump in the White House.

It is an exercise in taking a man at his word. And his vision of America promises to be as appalling in real life as it is in black and white on the page."

The history of American journalism, from even before the Revolution, is filled with partial and partisan reporting. On all sides. Even a cursory examination of American history easily proves it to any open mind (i.e.: other than the mind of a True Believer). True Believer liberals see a monolithic conservative press; True Believer conservatives see a monolithic liberal press. It is rather amazing, the selective blindness of both sides.

As a True Believer conservative I see a very liberal mainstream news media that is actively working to elect liberal/socialist democrats.

Yes there is Fox News which is not far left.

It does not reach all 300 million plus Americans because cable tv is not that big.

In round numbers I would guess conservative media is about 10% of the total while liberal media gets 90% of every broadcast day.
