Don't believe everything you read on the internet, or the newspapers. Nobody has the monopoly on truth. Healthy scepticism is a life skill. More so now when rumours can spread globally in seconds. The solution is not control but education and discernment. Our prejudices and current knowledge often determine to a large degree what we more easily believe. The traditional media is not only losing reach but also its power to 'shape and influence events' ie propaganda and in desperation the 'free press' has been reduced to the sorry state of seeking 'official source of truth status'. Sort of like a ministry of truth.
