In regards to OP, yes. There is media bias from both left and right.
Specific examples of biased news coverage

Then again there's only 6 major media outlets:

Many wealthy leftists -
Warren Buffet, Michael Bloomberg, Pierre Omidyar, Tom Steyer, and Jonathan Soros are all following in George Soros’s footsteps, grabbing up news media outlets through which they can spew their radical ideology.

Collectively, these five liberal billionaires own or support 88 media outlets with combined circulations of 3.6 million people! Forty-six of those outlets are located in the crucial swing states of Florida, North Carolina, Iowa, and Virginia.

One example of a wealthy liberal right-wing:
Murdoch’s Scandal | FRONTLINE | PBS

But meh, who watches TVs these days... we have the internet!

Yes, the news media is control by the government and which they are under the control of the rich and powerful. Does anyone know that there's a battle going on about labeling GMO food products? It is news, but why isn't there any reports about this on the news?

Yesterday, the Oregonian released a new poll it had commissioned showing that Measure 92, a ballot initiative to require the labeling of foods containing genetically modified ingredients in the state, was trailing 48 to 42 percent among likely voters. Yet back in July, another poll conducted forEarthfix of Oregon, an environmentally focused branch of Oregon Public Broadcasting, put support for the initiative at a very impressive 77 percent. That's a pretty steep dropoff.
We've heard this story before. Last year, Washington state rejected GMO labeling at the ballot, with just under 49 percent of citizens voting in favor. Before that, in 2012, a labeling initiative failed in California, 48.6 percent to 51.4 percent. This is despite national polling suggesting that the labeling of genetically modified foods is stunningly popular: A 2013 New York Times national survey, for instance, found that a staggering 93 percent of American support it.
So why does GMO labeling keep losing in actual ballot initiatives -- even in pretty lefty places like California, Washington, and now possibly Oregon?
Those in favor of GMO labeling -- who argue in favor of consumer choice, and also intimate that GMO foods, modified through modern biotechnological techniques, could potentially be dangerous -- will surely say it's because large volumes of food industry dollars are being dumped in these races, to kill the initiatives with huge ad buys. And indeed, according to The Oregonian, the fight over Measure 92 is "the costliest ballot measure fight in Oregon history," with those spending heavily to oppose the initiative including Monsanto and Dupont Pioneer.
But there's another possible explanation -- namely, that when people tell pollsters they favor GMO labeling, they don't really know what they're saying. Because overall public knowledge about GMOs is very low, many GMO polls give "a measure of what people will say they want to label when they have no idea what that means," explains Yale public opinion researcher Dan Kahan. Here’s why GMO labeling initiatives might fail – again - The Washington Post

It makes a lot of sense. I just wonder if that is an invasion of privacy. I don't know but I am pretty much over all of the laws, politicians and definitely the lying news reporters.
