Well, to be fair, this did happen. People today are better informed than ever. It worked so well, that classical media was (is?) dying. But what people forgot to mention was that money will still drive society, that people still cannot know everything and make failures, as people also will still manipulate others for whatever reason.
The world has become better, but it still remains flawed. After all, nothing will ever be perfect.
