Personally, I've taken this line not to be about one person specifically but the news media in general. That is to say there is a general trend for substance being substituted for by sensationalism. The media in this case would not be living up to their end of the bargain.
So much of what I see on the news (or read in the news) these days is not even news and should not even be news. It's just garbage that happens to get good ratings.
