If the media are so powerful in forming public opinion, why has there been a negative reaction to both the Scottish Sun and the BBC?

What will be an ideal response?

How things have changed though. In 2015 when Mr Andrew Nicoll, political editor of the Scottish Sun, was asked about the SNP he said ‘We are a Scottish newspaper, run in Scotland, printed in Scotland, produced in Scotland by Scots’.
