The question here is whether the reality of face-to-face communication in everyday life and media reality exist on the same plane or if they unfold on completely different principles. It can be said that this is a question of monism and pluralism regarding the basis of reality. Media communication strongly demands truthfulness, which is a monistic perspective. Reality is singular, and even if it is on the media, falsehood in communication is an act of betrayal of trust. On the other hand, in pluralism, the order of media communication is essentially fiction, and multiple principles of reality are allowed.
