Considering it's EBU with national media (usually taxpayer paid, or paid by some other mandatory way), it would be more interesting if they focused on what the media is reporting now, with human reporters and misleading and other kinds of false reportings. If the frontpage article said something wrong (either by malice or accident), there should be a frontpage article reporting about their error too.

Optimistically that could be extended "twitter-style" by mandatory basic fact checking and reports when they just copy a statement by some politician or misrepresented science stuff (xkcd 1217, X cures cancer), and add the corrections.

But yeah... in my country, with all the 5G-danger craze, we had TV debates with a PhD in telecommunications on one side, and a "building biologist" on the other, so yeah...
