@[Motozappa:48774] Yes, most have it wrong. I think you have to be the same age as the band to understand the 'meaning' of the lyrics. It really isn't social commentary (a younger person would jump to that conclusion) except in the very loosest sense.

@[proggie:48773] Yes, this is much nearer 'the meaning'.
It really doesn't have anything to do with ssocial commentary on what went on in the news, these references were just to contrast against the fictional shows mentioned.
