^ Corporate media is not “left-leaning”. Christ. Corporate media take a liberal or conservative angle within a very narrow spectrum of thought. But liberal and conservative thought are not economic-spectrum descriptions. All corporate media presents a view of the world that is pro-capitalist, and therefore pro-militaristic/imperialist, anti-worker, anti-democracy, and provides such a narrow context-free view of the world that it’s really not controversial to describe this garbage as corporate propaganda.
I’ve been here for years, and we’ve had these discussions so many times. We’ve attempted to disabuse you of your confusion regarding what “left” and “right” means.
You don’t need to figure out what interest corporate media have if you understand that they are corporations. A somewhat-dated but accessible read on how the media function is “Manufacturing Consent” by Noam Chomsky and Edward Herman.
Keep in mind that you would expect corporate media to present as “liberal” and “conservative” in order to maintain an acceptable spectrum of political thought that obfuscates the true nature of power and the ideology that they all share. The Democratic-friendly media and Republican-friendly media mirror the false divide that the two corporate parties do. They are both right-wing parties. Having liberal and conservative parties and their corresponding corporate media wings provides the illusion of a spectrum of political thought that is quite embarrassing.
This conversation has drifted far from the original question re: Tara Reade. If you are able to formulate a separate question that addresses what you see as anti-capitalist activity that corporations are engaging in, start a new threat – or call your doctor.
