The US corporate media isn't really that far left. They will rarely support real leftist issues like socialized healthcare, unions, higher taxes on the rich, etc but they do generally support lefty social issues like freedom and equality for everyone, race, LGBTQ issues, etc.
Here's a case where the headline puts a right-wing twist on data that clearly shows the opposite.
The front-page headline.
Almost every piece of data in the article shows the majority against anti-trans policies.
Whoever signed off on that headline should be fired.
A good summary here.
A WaPo Poll Found That Significant Majorities Support Pro-Trans Policies, But Reported The Exact Opposite: Putting a giant "Most in U.S. back GOP's anti-trans policies" headline on the front page when describing a poll that found that to be false is journalistic malpractice.
The original article here:
Most Americans support anti-trans policies favored by GOP, poll shows
