If I have to read a news article as if its some weasel-worded lawyerspeak contract (between the lines), then they're no longer in the business of informing at all. My cognitive capacity, however incredibly large it is, still is finite. Wasting it on crap like this means I'll almost certainly miss something else. It's difficult to believe that this isn't deliberate, but I manage to ignore that impulse... incompetence is still more likely than malice. Hence, "lazy and uninformed" instead of "deceptive and propagandizing".
