This is exactly the sort of message that should be packaged up in a PSA and disseminated through TV / YouTube / Facebook / Twitch / etc. I don't think the general population makes it over to Stallman's blog all that often.

I know that no news channel could be reasonably incentivized to criticize their own sensationalism, but I wonder how the narrative would change if the reports were often proceeded or followed by a government sponsored and mandated warning against overconsumption of "news".
