Wikipedia criticism

Why does this article include no mention of the fact that Wikipedia itself is often criticised for being subject to echo chamber effects? Whether or not you agree with the criticism, it should at least be mentioned, if only to serve as an example.

Echo vs Reverb

I'm no expert on this subject, but isn't the term echo chamber a misnomer, at least in modern production terminology? Surely reverb chamber would be a more accurate term, as I don't see how a basement would produce distinct diminishing repetitions of sound required to be classed as echo. Still, anyone with more knowledge about this subject, feel free to correct me.

I'm not suggesting we rename the article, but if my assumption is correct, then could we mention this potential misnomer somewhere in the article?
