I don't think it's a question of "who's right." The concept of a "free press" doesn't imply that one side gets all the press time. That's been a problem for a very long time, and it's definitely been on steroids this year. WaPo, if you'll recall, is the paper that outed Nixon, and was long celebrated as "courageous." That "courage" has been "bias" for decades. it's most evident when someone who espouses a particular political view uses "stories" to promote his views, and skews the reporting in one direction. Trump obviously espouses ONE view, and he has a right to that. He's not the press. WaPo is not supposed to be Drudge or Breitbart. It is.
