>>I have zero faith that the MSM will suddenly get a case of integrity.
A few defamation actions should remind media of the civic responsibility not to defame. Habitual defamation got them in trouble wrt the Covington Catholic boy because they seemed to forget they can get away with it only against public figures; you still have to behave responsibly about others, even if they are Catholics wearing the Devil's hat. It will be easier when it's back to having to always treat others as you would have them treat you.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
