Yes, I was just talking about conservative media. The media as a whole loves a horse race, but they aren't generally willing to lie to get it.

That said, polls right now are all over the place, which does put the media in general in a good place because a contentious election means more viewers.

But that's not a conspiracy, that's just capitalism- an exciting election equals more news viewers equals higher advertising rates. Would, say, CBS news lie about the polls to achieve that? I doubt it. Would Fox? Absolutely.
