Literally everyone uses the media that way, media always has bias and if you're ignorant to it you should be more wary.

Maybe it is time to start abolishing media and advertising in the first place...

*I bet a lot of those downvoting work in advertising/media... No pun intended.

Media nah leave it, advertising I'd absolutely be down for. Advertising and Marketing are essentially the science of tricking our brains, and when that lever is exposed to capital you get enshittification and misery.
