Conservatives far and wide take great joy in hurling the so-called "mainstream media" epithet at reporters and editors who tell them the truth about their favorite politicians. I disagree, therefore, that the term should be used in that context. If the right-wingers out there are going to toss the term "mainstream media" at those of us who are (or used to be) employed by media organizations, they should include their pals who toil for conservative outlets, too.
