You're talking about something completely different.
This is not a debate about truth in advertising, nor about journalists or politicians being deliberately misleading to suit their own political/ideological agenda.
You are off target here, as you are with your justification of mangling the language based on some spurious 'creativity' justification.
Kind regards.....and clear skies.
