As for the "news", I don't think anyone lies. I think it's simply perspective.
For example, "A bill was passed today by congress assuring healthcare for everyone". Simple fact.
"Oh my God this is wonderful, America is saved" or "Oh my God this will bankrupt the country and give more control of our lives to the government". Which of these is reported as news is merely perspective. Now if you think that when the "perspective" you don't like is is reported in the "news" is lying, that isn't the fault of MSNBC or Fox News.
The line between entertainment and news is a fine line and getting finer.
