All media have an agenda and are therefore biased.

Ted, no, the media in the US don't represent the point of view of the majority of people. Your question is right: Why aren't more-in-line-with-the-general-feelings-media get started? That's another issue though.
As for what you or I hear on the street, I don't make it a reliable source of information on which to ground my opinions.

Yeah it is good, would be failry boring if we thought the same and had the same ideas and thoughts.

I go with the assumption that anything I don't see or hear myself or a reliable source (friend/family) tells me, is lies.
