"That doesn't explain..."

That's because they all have audiences to pander to, audiences of people seeking to have their views and beliefs validated.

You're not going to get decent reporting when publication of choice gets most of its income from outrage porn, poorly researched articles that confirm the biases of its readership, and frequently slings mud at the other team. Even less so when the people in the publication's employ also try to use their position as a platform for their ideologies and step away from writing in the public interest.
