I understand what you're saying to a degree but it sounds too much like the people that believe conspiracy stuff.
My observations from listening to how it works day to day in their organization:
-Owners of the media outlet dictate broad editorial direction on key issues from upon high. Other non-key issues the owners don't interfere with the coverage except the staff are under pressure not to bring management attention to themselves from the ownership. -Journalists always under severe time crunch. -Under pressure to deliver content that subscribers crave. -Under no circumstances run stories that annoy advertisers.
These main things lead to a few common issues: -Journalists lacking time to adequately research issues. You see this more and more as expensive senior staff are replaced with younger or contract staff. -Companies/organizations that produce easily used news releases tend to get their wording/message incorporated with little challenge as it helps the news industry work faster and cheaper. -Journalists will often mistake giving equal coverage to two sides of an issue as being the same as fair and balanced reporting, there isn't always time for editors to educate reporters. -No critical reporting on advertising clients. Depending on the field this may be individual clients or client who represents large blocks of advertisers which can really hamper reporting.
Public sponsored media that operates independently of government and advertising solves a ton of these issues and has in some cases resulted in successes like the BBC. Alternatively things like Russian media end up with a massive state influence at the upper levels preventing independent reporting on a wide swath of issues.
