Perhaps it's just my subjective experience, but to me it looks pretty much other way around.

Visiting Lemmy from lemmy.world, liberal-bashing seems a bit like a folk sport for leftists in most threads that touch current world politics.

Read literally any MSM news headline

Not seeing it, sorry.

It's pretty normal that main stream reporting looks critically at fringe groups. That can be frustrating, but it's not an attack. Also consider that any time MSM publish anything that could outrage the political fringes, it is cherry picked and makes its run through the fringe communities.
To consider that as liberals attacking the left, I'd have to put on a tin foil hat and buy into the far-right conspiracy theory of "liberal bias in media" or even assume the main stream media and liberals are synonymous.
And if I was taking "MSM" literally, the most-watched news medium in the US happens to be Fox News, which essentially put the idea of blaming and vilifying liberals for all the ills in the world on the map.

I did obviously mean liberal media, not Fox or News max if that's still a thing.
