The entire point of journalism--the very thing that distinguishes it from the closely related fields of fiction and public relations--is that it presents the public with things that are true. They don't necessarily have to be important truths, of course, but they need, at minimum, to not be anti-truths, falsehoods fostered by a corporation that takes in $70 billion every year in service of selling a good no one needs and no one should want.
