The media is corporate and promotes corporate interests, as do mainstream Democrats (amd Republicans, obviously). If they go after the media, they have to tip toe around the fact that they're just as bought and paid for as well. The OP is an interesting qiestion in regards to Bernie Sanders and AOC though. I think the reasoning there is that on a lot of issues and on issues that corporations and the rich have no interest in, the media can at times do a good job and is good for the American people (other than push for consumerism). If you attack the media too much and too generally without giving them ANY credit, you are pushing some people towards fake partisan news and conspiracy theories.
