The media is on the offence with levels of subversion that are designed to influence your actions. Coindesk articles for example with over 20 tracking cookies (including Facebook tracking cookies) on their website need to be read with caution. I am always suspicious of how these organisations are funded, hence controlled, and how they choose which stories to run. You should be suspicious also and look for a motive (often financial) behind financial press articles ;-)
Have a read of some of the FUD articles below:
