The "underlying value" isn't much of a concern if you're someone seeking funding or a small investor. It's also not much of a concern if the "unchecked moral hazards" are still funneling money towards a small group of capitalists. Or if the political ramifications of the reporting are impactful in other areas.

It's not a media conspiracy if all the real world consequences are based on the same consensual reality. "It's all fake reporting anyway" is not a valid response here, even without disputing the base assumptions, which I probably would.
