No, libertarian does not mean “pro-corporate.”
This kind of ignorance is why so much reporting is nonsensical — reporters are always surprised when an economic report “unexpectedly” has bad numbers, because they really believe the Keynesian crap.

Being that a lobotomized house cat could easily complete a collegiate course of study in journalism, this sort of thing is not really surprising.
I’ve often noticed that one gets called “pro-corporation” or whatever equivalent term of abuse for simply not reflexively hating business.
They know nothing and they write about what they know.
That pretty much sums it up.
Many on the left have a juvenile reasoning process which goes like this:
I don’t like you, and I don’t like racists, so you must be a racist.
I don’t like you, but I do like cute animals, so you must hate cute animals.
Sometimes they form chains of this “logic”, such as:
I don’t like you, and I don’t like corporations, so you must like corporations.
I don’t like you, and I don’t like Nazis, so you must be a Nazi.
You are a Nazi who likes corporations, so Nazis like corporations.
If Nazis like corporations, corporations must be made up of Nazis.
I don’t like you and the evil Nazi corporations you support, so I must be a good person.
Isn’t the term ‘media morons’, an oxymoron?
No, but it is redundant.
Informed Media would be the oxymoron.
