Apparently, the only people more out of touch with American reality than the American mainstream media are American Republicans and the "very conservative," whose dissatisfaction with the MSM indicates a failure to understand that the MSM have been relentlessly agreeing with them and doing their bidding for the last 30 years.  And if Zogby is accurate, it seems that 50 percent of Democrats don't get it either, and believe that Spiro Agnew's "liberal establishment media" are still "liberal."

Surely you're not only now figuring out that Republicans are crazy and Democrats are stupid?

I'm damned if I can figure out what Democrats are.  I'm afraid plain "stupidity" doesn't explain it.  It's a pathology that seems to defy even description, let alone logic!  Compulsive ineffectuality topped with masochism, maybe?  Absolute refusal to be concerned about one's own self-interest?

I almost always vote for Democratic candidates (because I'm sure as hell not going to vote the other way), but it's been decades since I really thought of myself as one.
