Or, if by "lies" you are referring to AG's more nuanced "story selection and emphasis" definition, I guess I totally disagree. Does FNC "lie"? Is it unethical to start more news outlets on the FoxNews model? If not, you have a drawn a distinction without a difference.
It seems to me that you're saying "well, you guys have control, and it's unfair." Much like those that snipe from the left about the widening gulf between the haves and the have-lesses.

Do you remember the NYT story I posted that had a topic line basically saying the Bush had fucked up the economy so bad that people still were joined the military even though any sane person wouldn't if they had a choice because Bush is war-crazy?
That was an example of bias turning the fact that enlistment was not down into a double Bush slam, w/o any support. Of course, it doesn't matter because anyone who reads the NYT knows it has the bias, or is so crazy Dem anyway that the bias doesn't matter.
