Maybe because I gamble never see the media or news outside as a reference why I should gamble on certain bets that are widely discussed.
But if you look at the psychology of players who prioritize news that is hype in the media, they will definitely be affected.
There are many casinos currently in circulation, of course they will carry out advertising whose aim is to make many people interested in the casino and visit to place bets and behind this there is a profit intention which is their main goal. Casinos will do their best for the development of their own casinos by utilizing media. This is one way to develop the casinos they own, so it is not strange if they spread news or advertisements.
I myself am the same as you with gambling but I never look at the media or the news that is spread, occasionally I often see it but I don't care about it so I just pass it by because I already know that what they do is just a marketing strategy, not the truth. completely saying that it is easy to win or something else is just a mere perspective.Besides that, I think there are already many people who are influenced by the news in the media about gambling that is spreading and experiencing its impact.
