For sure. There's no ministry of truth in the first world, only in dystopian fantasy, as a warning. If anyone has manipulated online media, it was brief attempts that didn't last. But biased reporting is not the whole truth. The more reputable reporting is filtered to the top. Unreliable subject matter bloggers / vlogger influencers and their sycophantic fans can be ignored by discerning viewers. There's a lot more to say but I need to drink my latte.
