Over the years it has become incredibly clear that corporate media mouth pieces are incredibly lazy and arrogant. Bitcoin is just one of many topics where you can witness this. I have been listening to more normie sources lately to get a feel for where they are and you are dead right. They are maybe at 2017 at best. Some are even farther behind than that. I don't expect them to be bitcoiners but it become obvious very quickly that they just repeat the same talking points we hear all the time.

Gell-mann amnesia is something you must be aware of. We saw this over and over during Covid on medical things. Uncritically repeating talking points is what they do. They do it on AI. They do it on quantum. They do it on foreign relations. They do it on economics. They do it on everything.
