The evidence for that is overwhelming for anyone who actually cares to look. Decades ago, we had no way of knowing about the extent of lies being told to us by the media (and by our politicians, for that matter) at the time they were told to us, because we had no other sources of information.

I agree that sucks, but it's the fact, and trying to ignore it or sugar coat it just makes it worse.
