They (MSM and liberal activists) create their own narrative and then fail to report anything that contradicts that narrative. I'm not sure how this ever stops, it's grown worse year after year in my lifetime. We need freedom of the press, but that implies that the press reports on events fairly. That just doesn't happen and so many who barely pay attention to anything beyond their next car payment buy the narratives hook, line, and sinker ... this keeping the left in power.
