“If something is actually important you’ll hear about it” basically means you have resigned to believe the corporate/government spin on everything.

By the time you “hear about it everywhere” because it’s important, it has already been twisted and distorted, and given the party-line spin.

Which is a valid choice, of course - but you should be aware of that, and — if you care about facts rather than narrative - ignore the stuff when you hear about it as well.
