Why is the liberal media so sympathetic to insurance companies?

I’ve been trying to figure out why they for the most part (as in 99% except for Fox) are in favor of the health reform bill. Considering the insurance industry wrote and funded the bill, and their stocks closed at all time highest last week in anticipation of the passage of the bill, is it that those who control the media are friends with the CEOs and Wall Street investors who have a high financial interest and gain in health care? What do you think?
Who gives a darn about the media. Why are our public servants, the people who are supposed to be representing us, so sympathetic to the insurance companies? Our politicians want to make everything nice for the lobbyists.

Americans are exposed to seven times more radiation from diagnostic scans than they were in 1980. Experts are saying that doctors are overusing the tests for profit and raising health risks for patients.
The findings add to already mounting evidence that doctors are ordering too many diagnostic tests, driving up the cost of health care in the United States and potentially harming patients.
Diagnostic scans can give doctors valuable information, but some doctors fear too much radiation exposure may cause cancer, especially in younger people.
However, imaging technology has created a financial incentive for some doctors to cash in — by referring patients to get imaging tests on equipment in their own practices.
