Indeed, the media finds out a couple of Bitcoins get used to buy some lame 9mm guns on some darkweb on Tor, and reports it as the end of the world. Meanwhile, they don't report on the never ending amount of fiat going into actual huge terrorist groups, or how US actually created, funded and trained Islamic Terrorism.
And also, they don't tell people the good hearted acts made thanks to Bitcoin:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7jj0oa/im_donating_5057_btc_to_charitable_causes/Thats $85+ million that are being donated to good causes, but the media will never report on it, they only report the bad side.
Im not really surprised regarding on this matter which media do only focus or aired negative sides of bitcoin rather than on balancing it on making news also into its positive side.If they would really see its positive side then for sure they would really loosen up the restrictions that have been made because of such false advertisement which would really cause first impressions into bitcoin.
