This can only be true if we assume that news is accurate. It simply isn't.

Accuracy isn't a binary.

Is that an accurate statement?

Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't, depending on the domain.

There's a range between 0% and 100%. Saying news is either would be false. Giving it a percentage would just depend on what news and what situation.

It might be accurate, but that's not the priority.

Think about it: broadcasting information costs something. Nobody is going to pay that cost unless they're getting a return for it. Nobody is going out of their way to provide you with information out of the goodness of their heart. They're doing it so that you buy what they're selling (e.g. pharmaceuticals, gold) or vote for their party, etc.

A lot of times that information will be technically not wrong, but that's not the goal.
