I agree with the premise here completely, but not what it's in response to necessarily. Most people keep very shallow knowledge of most subjects, but this doesn't mean things shouldn't be reported. It just means they(media) shouldn't spend a ton of time explaining how said numbers are calculated. Most people read, hear, or otherwise know the current inflation rate, but not exactly how it's calculated. All that to say, if some metric isn't being reported, there's a reason - likely for some agenda being pushed.
