Yeah, it's a fun game at the end of the show trying to catch on to the "meta" of the writers trying to bait you into thinking it's one or the other
sometimes it's "too weird" in just the right way that you know it's apparently fact, sometimes it's "too ordinary" for it to have been all that news-worthy in the first place for them to have based the story on it.
And other times they say fuck that and just bullshit like you, like the times they very unambiguously show ghosts moving physical objects and it's apparently "fact"
