By those standards, National Enquirer, Maxim and Cosmo are media too.
I guess I just think of "Media" as news outlets, not entertainment. I realize the line has really been blurred in recent years but there's gotta be some sort of imaginary line in the sand.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
