Nobody is saying the media is perfect, independent and unbiased. But there's ample selection if you're even inclined to look at different views on a given subject.
Also, you don't speak for 'people' and neither do I. But we know 'people' went out and gave more votes to Shillary than Trump. And I don't point this out to trash Trump (a legitimate president) or highlight Shillary. I point it out because that's what happened, is measurable and thus real.
Conspiracies are just that, meaningless rumors which carry no weight unless they're proven to be true. You have to skeptic of anything without actual evidence, and you have to also be aware of the difference between isolated cases and massive cases.
I know there's plenty of people that 'want to believe' (for whatever reason), but that doesn't make reality any less real and the alternate reality any more than fantasy.
