We got misinformed at a much slower rate though. The newspapers could only tell us so many lies at a time.

    Doesn't misinformation involve intent? Aunt Marge probably thought she was right.

    no, thats disinformation. disinformation is willful malicious intent to spread misinformation, knowing that its wrong info in order to achieve a certain result(such as propaganda by russia, or giving wrong intel to an enemy). misinfo is just saying potential info that may or may not be true, and no fact checking, and just ignorant to the info.
