Naomi Klein recently said "conspiracy theorists ‘get the facts wrong but often get the feelings right’" and this is how I think a lot of way too online people are. They've correctly judged that the mainstream news is biased or flat out manufacturing consent such as the lead up to the Iraq war. However instead of seeking out actual truth or just better sources of news in response to this, they seek out what makes them feel good and correct in their assumptions. Honestly its the same behavior you see in older people that are "set in their ways" - new evidence and objective truth be damned.
