As a leftist who feels the Democratic party is a center-right party, networks like CNN and MSNBC come across as deeply biased but not particularly "left". Maybe Liberal, but certainly not "Left".

Right and left have been rendered almost meaningless, especially in this context.

What is called "left" these days is more, "that which conforms to Democrat narratives" and lately quite illiberal, while pretty much anything else is called "right" or "far-right" even when it's attacking corporations or the military-industrial complex.

In the States, yes. It's unfortunate, I think, because it lumps together many different (and often opposing) ideologies under one label.
