Controversy exists over the meaning and definition of the terms '''Mainstream Media''' or its acronym '''MSM'''<ref>
Both [[Conservative]]s and [[Liberal]]s use the [[acronym]] '''MSM''' to describe the '''[[mainstream media]]'''</ref>. Some consider the '''mainstream media''' to consist primarily of those media organs that existed in the [[United States of America]] prior to 1987, and especially any of those media organs that continue to exist today. Others take a view that the term 'mainstream', no matter the context, simply refers to 'that which is most popular'.
