They call it the “mainstream” for a reason — until now it ruled with impunity and assumed conservative voices would simply sit down and take it. Ed Henry has been sounding the alarm on his new show, arguing that the era of unquestioned legacy-media authority is ending and that fake-news outfits are finally facing a reckoning for years of partisan malpractice. Viewers heard that blunt message on Ed Henry: The Big Take, where he pushed back hard on the press’s bias against President Trump and the conservative movement.
The reckoning isn’t just talk; it’s hitting the balance sheets. ABC News recently agreed to a multimillion-dollar settlement and an apology after an anchor misstated court findings about the president — a costly admission that the networks can no longer dismiss. That kind of payout is a warning shot to newsroom executives who treated sloppy, agenda-driven coverage as a cost of doing business.
Across the pond the rot is just as visible: the BBC’s public apology for a misleading edit of President Trump’s January 6 remarks, and the departures of senior executives, blew the lid off long-standing complaints about institutional bias. When even the global behemoth of broadcast news is forced to apologize and lose leaders over an editorial choice, ordinary Americans can see what conservatives have been saying for years — the system protected its own until the truth became undeniable.
Americans aren’t fooled anymore. Gallup polling shows trust in mass media has plunged to historic lows, with just 28 percent of the public saying they trust newspapers, television and radio to report fairly and accurately. That collapse in credibility is bipartisan in its damage, but it lands hardest on conservatives who were routinely smeared and silenced by those same institutions.
This is not a moment for complacency; it’s a moment for accountability. The pattern of settlements, apologies and resignations is evidence that lawsuits and public pressure can change behavior, and conservatives should double down — by exposing error, demanding corrections, and using every legal and civic tool to hold the powerful press to account. The old guard must learn that slander and distortion carry consequences.
Patriotic Americans who love free speech and fair play should rally behind journalists and platforms that actually report the facts instead of manufacturing narratives. Support shows and outlets willing to challenge the establishment narrative, keep pressing the facts, and never surrender to the smug arbiters of elite opinion. The media’s reckoning is underway — and it’s time for hardworking Americans to ensure it ends with honest journalism that serves the public, not political vendettas.
