Oh, the question was most assuredly sarcastic. And while I do blame the media for a lot of the polarization. Factually reporting on Trump isn't polarization. It's the last ditch too late effort to stop the coming fascism. That they helped set up.

The polarization was them turning absolutely everything into an exhausting horse race. While at the same time. Absolutely failing to report properly and objectively about a million other different things over the last 50 to 60 years. Leading to a slow, rightward drift as they enabled their pay masters.
