This is off another web site, but it spells why they have a conflict of interest or worse. No wonder the so called 'charter' gets tore up all the time.
This also feeds into what people have been saying about how the lefties important populate govt jobs in media, schools, uni's etc. Its part of the old commie book of power. It is all about controlling the zombies.

Political bias? Never!
Why does the Left media protect the left..
Because the political commentators of the Left media are either intermingled or married to the left politicians. It's a family thing and they protect their own.
Greg Combet (Labor) partnered to Juanita Phillips (ABC).
Gai Brodtmann (Labor) married to Chris Uhlmann (ABC).
David Feeney (Labor) married to Liberty Sanger (guest commentator on ABC).
Barry Cassidy (ABC) former speech writer for Bob Hawke (Labor) from 1986-1991.Heather Ewart (ABC) married to Barry Cassidy (ABC) speech writer for Bob Hawke (Labor) from 1986-1991.
Maxine McKew (ABC) married to Bob Hogg (former ALP national secretary).
Maxine McKew (ABC) became Labor politician.
Virginia Trioli (ABC) married to Russell Skelton (The Age).
Mark Kenny (Fairfax) married to Virginia Haussegger (ABC).
Christine Wallace (ABC & Fairfax) married to Michael Costello (former Chief of Staff to Labor's Kim Beazley).
Annabel Crabb (former Fairfax journalist now with the ABC).
Tony Jones (ABC) married to Sarah Ferguson (ABC). Coincidentally Jones took over the Lateline role from Maxine McKew (from ABC presenter to Labor politician).
David Penberthy (journalist) married to Kate Ellis (Labor).
Paul Kelly (former Fairfax journalist) formerly married to Ros Kelly (Labor).
Kerry O'Brien (ABC) former press secretary to Gough Whitlam.
Mark Colvin (ABC) married to Michelle McKenzie (Leichhardt deputy-mayor and Greens Councillor).
Denis Atkins (ABC Insiders regular) married to Melanie Christensen (ABC Canberra).
Paul Barry (ABC) married to Lisa McGregor (ABC).
The lamentable Mike Carlton (formerly Fairfax) and Morag Ramsay (ABC).
Andrew Fraser (Fairfax) and Catriona Jackson (formerly Fairfax and Labor press secretary).
And so the list goes on. Labor, Fairfax and the ABC are joined at the hip. Much like the relationship between Labor and the unions.
Why do they protect Burke where they savage Bishop?

"political commentators of the Left media are either intermingled or married to the left politicians"?

One could see it that way, but....
Its obvious to me that left media business's are only hiring those that are associated with the left!
i.e. if you do not fit in politically, you are not a contender!
They probably headhunt them anyway!!
