Yes, Aineo, it would seem you are absolutely correct in that supposition. And when you think about it, it is only logical, i.e. who [or by what means] are the media [and universities and research grant seekers, etc., etc., etc.] financially supported [by]? Is it not advertising [and donations, and grants, etc.]? As the old saying goes, "He who pays the piper,
calls the tune!" And, as a poster on the wall in my father's office [so facetiously] put it, "In this place of business, the golden rule applies: He who has the gold, rules!"
Just my viewpoint and "two cents worth,"

JFYI, I have ingested a Bowel Tolerance dose of ascorbic acid [via one gram tablets], in HEALTH, not illness [of which I have had virtually none], basically every day since 1994, amounting to [currently], on average, 75+ grams [daily], in 10 to 15 divided doses.
