I agree, but when you yourself (not conspiracy sites) are able to catch them in misleading headlines using cherry picked data, it's quite eye opening. I was able to do this over and over using raw statistical data. But yes I will also agree the really crazy stuff comes from non-MSM sources. The MSM is smart enough to cherry pick what is technically correct, even though it is entirely contradictory to what the data as a whole is saying.

I tried to fact check this a couple years back and could find nothing, absolutely nothing. Almost as if it's been scrubbed... very odd. But if it's true (as multiple sources have stated) it's a problem for sure. A big one.
It's obvious that pharma has a massive budget for advertising/promotions so it would seem quite plausible.
