Is FOX news mainstream media or lamestream media in your mind. Don't get all mad and defensive like you want to stab people, just answer the question.
Lamestream:
1) something that is so mainstream that pretty much everyone likes it and it becomes lame for that reason.
2) creative work that achieves mainstream popularity by trying to appeal to everyone therefore, sacrificing originality
3) things that people participate in or go to because they think it makes them look hip
Gee, dunno, but those quoted urban definitions pretty much describe the left-wing networks!! the followers 
Mainstream
Common current thought of the majority, however, the mainstream is far from cohesive, rather the concept is considered cultural construct.
Those media disseminated via the largest distribution channels which represent what the majority of the media consumers are likely to encounter.
...concentration of media ownership has raised concerns of a progressive homogenization of viewpoints presented to the consumer.
Guess lamestream mainstream pretty much sums up MSNBC, NBC, HLN, CNN, CBS
