I saw a fact-check on a Biden tweet for the first time in history a couple days ago, so that's a start. You're letting the perfect be the enemy of the good. If you don't think Twitter artificially amplified/silenced things for political reasons, you're nuts.

Reddit shut down its most popular subreddit, and its largest ad-revenue generator, because it favored Trump. Before they shut it down, Google hid it in search results. These companies aren't just about making money. Tencent didn't invest in Reddit to make money. Tencent invested in Reddit to exert control over content on Reddit.

CNN isn't the lowest-rated network because its execs are incompetent. Ad revenue and viewers are secondary to something bigger. They choose the lower-earning slant.
