Is the news created? Is the public shown only false news? Is it just business in most cases? Most people are blind believers. So it plays a vital role.
There is no need for false news to shape opinion. Think of one's picture of reality as a point-cloud, each point one news report. By choosing which news they promote, and which they bury, the media can paint almost any picture they wish, without uttering a single falsehood.
