I don't know if that's meant to be a joke or serious, but I would disagree.

Most daily news is quite factual, assuming a reputable source. It doesn't require detective work the way plane crashes do.

And when it is incorrect or misleading, a week usually won't make a difference. It takes months or years or decades for the truth to come out, often in a book by a journalist or historian who frames it as a "tell-all", or a Pulitzer Prize-nominated series of newspapers articles, etc.
