You may be responding to something other than what you think you're responding to, then.
I certainly wasn't thinking of movies.
Ownership does create a very strong bias; I'm not sure whether "intentional" vs. "unintentional" is a meaningful or useful way to evaluate it. I suspect it's not really useful.
I don't really like the term "MSM", though "traditional media" is a fairly useful term for the same thing.
One common feature of traditional media is their subscription to the philosophy of "objectivity", which as practiced by American media generally means: for each issue, break it down into two opposing sides. Report what each side says. I actually find that to be a serious distortion in many cases, so I'm very happy to have some "not objective" media to get a better understanding from. But that one's also different from the ownership bias.
