For me the word mega in front of churches made me more concerned. Just because the crowds are so large.

The media's dislike for anything Christian makes this a two quadrant story.. possible three if the mega churches are in a red state.

Wait, what?

The phrase "the Media's stance" refers to the media as a whole, the average of all media. By definition the average will be between the least and the greatest, which means by definition the Media's stance on a topic will always be too P-slanted for Q-ists and too Q-slanted for P-ists.

Fun fact: by the popularized definition in the media, most of your Catholic and Orthodox churches would be "mega churches" as well, despite sharing little in common. They get lumped together statistically, however.
