The current President is surrounded by a cult of personality. It makes it easier to see all of the news reports in the vein of "bitter mass media upset about election results" or "pandering to SJW/PC crowd."

Maybe it's just me but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of journalists are in some part motivated by their displeasure with the President's demeanor and public behavior. But that motivation doesn't mean they're dishonest, it just means that they will follow through on every lead in an investigation regarding POTUS corruption.
