A lot of these "grifters" or "commentators" and stuff aren't really there to interpret news and stuff. They're there to tell certain groups of people what to think.
Like pass talking points to them or assuage their doubts about what's really happening to them. Accuracy and stuff is an afterthought because they only need to worry about the next news cycle which used to be months but is now days.
