15. Unfortunately the American MSM is becoming less and less unbiased and given to balanced reporting.

Some of Russia's media are prone to this, just a mouthpiece for government propaganda.

Kirk's murder is just a blip on the radar of deaths by shooting in America, but if an outlet devotes the first 20 minutes of its evening news to it, while putting school shootings at the back of the news, you know what executive, top level biases at the media outlet are at play.

Non critical treatment of Kirk's philosophy now and in the past tells its own story too.
That very much comes from the top as well.

It is a slow decent into irrational insanity, made popular by Trump and his followers.

There are still unbiassed media, but those are overseas, like the UK BBC.
