Instead of passing media_url to each view, I do the following:
1) in my urls.py I put:
...
url(r'^media/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT}, 'media'),
...
2) in my templates I put:
...
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% url media 'css/base.css' %}"
type="text/css">
...
