They lie all the time.

we just don't get to know when it's happening. People that trust those guys go with a "this is too horrible, so they must be lying" heuristic, that has been proven not to work several times. The problem is that an heuristic is not supposed to be reliable, and it's hard to make them see beyond the noise.
