The press has hounded Marco Rubio for years because he...once reached awkwardly for a water bottle. Mitt Romney, anyone? The idea that only Dems are subject to this nonsense is just goofy.
The liberal idea that rich and corporate management -> conservative media bias is just as wrong as the conservative idea that liberal reporters and editors -> liberal media bias.
Media bias is real and matters, but it mostly comes from media self-interest (for high ratings/sales/clicks, for 1st amdt, etc.) and from media norms, which are complicated but not ideological in any obvious way and certainly not partisan.
