IF Trump has conflicts due to profit motive then so does the MSM. MSM is a
business first and reporters, etc. are put on TV based on ratings which equate to dollars. There is no special training to be a journalist (and nor should there be especially controlled by the government). More importantly, while the MSM or others cannot legally tell known lies, there is nothing compelling any media outlet to tell the entire truth, to look for the entire truth or to report matters evenly, e.g., multiple paragraphs setting forth one side of the issue and only one sentence or two of the other side's response. Finally, while your statement is true, there is nothing preventing the MSM from editorializing or opining on matters without all the facts or knowing the full truth.
