Media bullying

Media bullying is aggressive bias by the media in the attempt to influence a candidate, a politician, an institution, or even sports contestants.

Examples of media bullying include:

trying to force Hillary Clinton to pull out of the Democratic primary
forcing Queen Elizabeth to give a special public eulogy for the media favorite Princess Diana, who had been estranged from the royal family
imposing strict gun control in Britain and Australia by creating an hysteria from over-publicized killings in the 1990s
ridiculing Vice President Dan Quayle for his gaffes, in contrast with downplaying gaffes by liberals
forcing President Richard Nixon to resign for covering up a scandal, in contrast with defending President Bill Clinton's covering up a scandal
sex abuse in public schools is worse than in religious institutions, yet the media constantly bullies religious (especially Catholic) officials about it
the media bullies the competitors of Tiger Woods in every major golf contest
the media bullies Paris Hilton as dumb, but she's no dumber than other Hollywood figures
the media bullied airships into terminating service by creating an unjustified hysteria based on the Hindenburg accident
