They both think they're correct, for who is to tell them no? Because of these types of upbringing our realities will always be different based on what we choose to believe.
Society cannot trust the reality advertised in the mass media when it comes to politics because some of it is biased and inaccurate. As much as we want to believe that we know the truth about everything out in the media that is not the case. The government will always keep a tight lid on to their information until they feel it is necessary to tell the public. Take for example 9/11; everyone remembers that day as the first stone being thrown at the United States by the Al-Qaeda. Not knowing what to do and with majority of the country asking for war, the President declared war. Majority of Americans see 9/11 as Al-Qaeda bringing war to the United States by destroying the twin towers and taking thousands of lives of loved ones but no one ever thinks of the troops that invaded and brought war to Afghanistan. We brought war to another country right after 9/11 that had nothing to do with the incident but just a group of people. All of these are statements that the news, media and several Americans used to make their own version of reality. People in the United States never thought about the consequences of their actions after the war started. That was not a part of their correct version of reality. Every possible reality was out there in the news which said we were going to war because we wanted all the oil in Afghanistan, other said for justice because of the destruction of the twin towers and all the lives that were lost and the government claimed we went to war because Afghanistan had nuclear weapons. There was not one clear story for why we went to war, everyone did know what started the flame was the destruction of the twin towers. This event can be seen in completely different ways and can have a lot of evidence to back it up.
