I agree that this song is about media distortion. "Orwellian Flip-Flop" may refer to how in 1984, the country that Eurasia was at war with was subject to change without notice.

We're being told in the media to give up our freedoms for safety (from terrorism). Normally, you wouldn't surrender your freedoms to anyone, but we're being told that's a good thing. Hence, bad is the new good, and down is the new up. Alles klarr?
