Is there some sort of shadow organization funding all the woke stories?

Corporate ad-spend funds the woke stories. Apple doesn't want to buy iPhone ads for stories about how Apple has 300,000 Chinese working for $3 an hour making iPhones that sell for over $1000 (with a gross profit margin exceeding 50%) while minorities in the USA can't find work that pays rent.
