When the press is combative, the press is docile if not subservient since he has entered the political spectrum. If it weren't for Putin's obvious lack of respect for President Obama Snowden would already have been shipped back

Huh? Got any kind of evidence for this extremely doubtful statement? Or is it just an idle fantasy of yours?
I am sure Putin respects Obama just fine; they're both consummate politicians playing their parts to the T.
The press always likes something that sounds like a scandal and this presidency has been no exception. You are suffering from confirmation bias. The media is not 'liberal'.
"...the nation’s journalists have moved a bit to the right since the 1990s, but are still considerably more liberal than the general public."
