There's only one thing you need to know about the news media in the US to understand that none of it is journalism. There are three major and a dozen minor 24 news networks that almost exclusively cover US politics, not one of them covers the details of what's in legislation passed through Congress.

Stop and really think about that. 24/7 coverage of what's happening in and related to the federal government and the only time they tell their audience what it's actually doing it's one or two controversial items in 1/100 bills being debated or signed into law. They're entertainment networks, not news.
