It’s an age thing.
Most higher level government officials tend to be around boomer age. And over their lifetime they’ve grown to trust traditional-media more than almost anything. And these days the most major outlets are focused eniterly on revenue, so most of them heavily self-censor.

Amazing considering how the media has been lying to them their whole life.
They are the way they are because the media has been lying to them their entire lives.
It’s hard to discern propaganda when propaganda is your baseline.
