Does the media choose not to have a comments section for their articles in order to prevent readers from disputing the corporate narrative?

Yes. Corporate propaganda is so detached from reality that they can't have anyone pointing out the BS. Another facet of their propaganda is claiming the people who do this are trolls. Anyone who is truly a troll can be quickly be reported by other readers and have their comments deleted.

Some media does, the Guardian springs to mind and the BBC to a lesser extent. Even the Daily Wail prints comments so long as they're in praise of Strictly Come Dancing!

The comment sections in news stories are nothing but troll farms. Liberals and conservatives are guilty of this.
