I think it's more than fair to blame the media, which has had centuries to build up their reputation and credibility. They were incapable of preserving public trust during a national crisis. They have all the advantages over individuals or fringe organizations. We aren't talking about a few thousand people that got indoctrinated into a cult, we are talking about millions of people, some highly educated, who turned away from the mainstream media altogether.
