The corporate media is "THE CORPORATE MEDIA," and their greatest strength has always been punching down especially with saturation, repetitive and superficial coverage.
Anyone strongly proposing policies for the benefit of the vast majority of the American People at the expense of oligarchs and mega-corporate conglomerates will be trashed with a magnifying glass or microscope.
Human frailties can't be allowed to exist for such champions of the people because that might encourage other people to also run for office, and challenge power.
Power is what controls the corporate media whether it be their oligarch/corporate conglomerate owners, major corporate commercial purchasers or a fascist regime in power.
So a skull and bones tattoo taken is a much greater sin that voting against "The Inflation Act" which would allowed Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices just as the VA does.
*AI Overview Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) did vote against the Inflation Reduction Act. She was the only member of Maine's congressional delegation to oppose the $739 billion spending package, which passed the Senate in a 50-50 vote with the tie broken by Vice President Kamala Harris.
* AI Overview Millions of Americans ration or skip medications due to high costs, resulting in tens of thousands of preventable deaths every year. Cost barriers lead to an estimated 125,000 premature deaths annually across the United States.
Now those dead people would literally have been turned into mountains of skulls and bones, but that's all but ignored by the corporate media in their coverage because the corporate media makes mega bucks by selling prescription drug commercials. So the more money Big Pharma makes, the more money they have to spend on commercials.
So the corporate media in the words of Steppenwolf have largely become "The Pusher."
