This is all obviously a big deal to old media, who have made an art not out of sharing incorrect truths, but of very selectively sharing truths, to the point that what emerges does not really represent the truth at all. They didn't lie, but they aggressively shaped.

Well and empirically demonstrated in the 80's by Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky.
