    They're basically yelling "THE SKY IS FALLING!!" on a clear, calm day with blue skies and sunshine.

    You forgot one thing. The people with open ears that will listen to the media companies are also the same people who have open pockets to be lined with donations and those people also make the political/legal decisions, not the consumer ie you or us. SO it doesn't matter who in your face stupid things are said by the media companies they bring the cash for donations.
