It should be everyone's own responsibility to think about the information they receive before acting upon it.

If the media is annoying and constantly lies to you, change channel, watch or do something else. The more people get sucked into to debating if media is good or bad, the more media has won and sucked you in.

I find media very useful, without the tv I would not hear the news of the world, or learn some cool history from documentaries, social media at least shows us the type of people we are surrounded by in this world. Some things are truths, some are plain lies, the most important thing one can do is research what they believe to be true. Dig deeper, learn more about the subject, and decide for yourself just how much has been twisted to make interesting TV, and how much is in fact the truth.

Swings and roundabouts ay :D
