Does The "Mainstream Media" Have A Liberal Bias, And, If So, How Much Of One?

I'm asking.
My answers:
1. Yes
2. That's a pretty hard question

[Maybe I should have started with: does the MSM have a liberal inclination... That question is prior to / easier than the question in the title.]

    My answers:

    1. Maybe (I lean towards no)
    2. See answer to number one

    (when I think back to the presidential race coverage the amount of negative coverage of Clinton and Sanders compared to Trump on ALL the networks...liberal bias? Where?)

    (1) Yes, and it can be documented.

    (2) Quite a lot. The entire conservative media complex would not exist without it. It is more cultural bias than partisan bias, btw.
