I'm not sure you understand. It's not about what journalists genuinely believe, it's about what narrative creates the most polarizing, emotional and long-standing controversy, because those traits result in eyeballs and therefore revenue.

Truth didn't matter, the hyped up emotionalism of it all was a windfall for the media.
