Simple. Ask some Americans to write an article about spies or hackers. Then ask someone from North Korea. Do you not think where they are from and who they work for having an influence on what country the spy/hacker is from and who they work against?
There's no such thing as unbiased journalists. When the Red Scare was on its highest, they would likely write about Communist spies. When Muslims were the most evil people ever, they would likely write about state sponsored groups from Iran. These days, Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea are the de facto go-to for Americans writing about these kinds of things even though most hacks in the US are done by Americans against Americans. There's no need for a conspiracy for OPs comment to be correct. People want you to believe their world-view.

So The Guardian and Washington Post reporting on Edward Snowden leaks literally about USA Hacking and Spying... don't count? It's probably the biggest report ever published on this matter and happened in the USA. Not to mention that others followed through...
That's why this is quite a confusing statement... heavily conspiracy-driven and misinformed... was any journalist murdered? Because you know, other regimes murder their journalists for far less.
Anyway, I don't think this answers the question.
The user generalized, and I'm looking for a concrete case of "what the media" wants us to hear where coordination took place. This is conspiracy theory by the way, and it's now generalized - so I think it's important to go into the facts of it.
For example, if he said specifically "X is optimized to push MAGA content", it would be a concrete example of a multi-billionaire pushing a certain narrative and there's data that shows the shift[0]
But stating that "the media" as a whole, is such a broad statement and such an extraordinary claim, that it requires that we look into it no?
Of course, there are different sets of values and controls depending on the country. There's no free press in North Korea. This is a very different statement, because there's free press in most Western Countries, even with individual biases.

Can you provide more information about these claims? Who are these Americans, and to whom are they writing?
