I disagree on 2.

They simultaneously fail to adequately present the liberal case and at the same time are so-called too liberal for the fly over country folks.

People buy media that they agree with. The New York Times sells to the liberal people of the country. The righties tune in to Fox or get the Wall Street Journal. Both slants are available and in my opinion the country is divided 50%-50%. Maybe there is a media bias out there that 55% of the media slants toward the left and 45% slants toward the right. But there is no huge categorical totally liberal bias of the media.

Also absent from this analysis is the propagandizing done through churches. (which I think can be safely assumed to have a righty bias in total)

If one listened to righties he would get the impression that there was no place one could go to get the righty version of things because "the media is so liberally biased". I can say categorically that that is not the case.
