The MSM and business media are integral parts of the smoke and mirror bubble machine. Much of what is reported, is in actuality merely 'repeated', as it is in the media's best interest to perpetuate myths rather than expose the truths. Whether it be for nefarious reasons such Access, or to drive up their own advertising revenues with corporate/government friendly message, the bottom line is that the average person is being misinformed, and under-informed about the underlying reasons for the grinding pain that they feel each day.
