This is where things get more complicated.
For example, things in the US have moving and TV ratings based on the type of content. People can opt-in to watching things at that rating level knowing the types of content in it. They can do it for themselves and their children. Some TV stations only have certain types of content and remove others.
With social networks some will say that certain types of content isn't for that network. It's the same idea.
What these channels and networks aren't doing is telling you what is misinformation or not. They aren't making truthy statements.
Modern social media is making truthy statements. booleans. Not about what content is allowed in the network but about what is true and not as a whole. That's different.

That said, standards were edging toward allowing more things until the FCC cracked down hard after the Janet Jackson/Justin Timberlake Super Bowl performance. This question is more political than you like to pretend.
