You're completely ignoring self-censorship practiced by the press in favour of financial gains. "Oops, looks like Nestlé just paid us a lot of cash for an ad. I guess that story about their security force beating up a bunch of slaves won't be getting a page after all".
"Nestlé also p̶a̶i̶d̶ gifted/lobbied someone in congress, we can't be making the politician/billionaire look bad. We might lose our money tree"
People are fed so much clickbait/propaganda by their news, they end up believing ratings made by themselves.
Nestle is worth to be automatically boycotted. Find any alternatives to their products. A lot of alternatives to Milo in my country are available, including Energen Champion.
