Can you give an example of an argument used by a regular here akin to that?
I don't have an example handy (and I don't believe that I have seen it in this thread). But normally, it is used, essentially how I described; however with text, rather than video. Video seemed to be applicable to the same reasoning. And like you, I normally bring up the context of the way the media is given, and received by it's audience. And per ussual, nothing is discussed, but the claim is just repeated.
