I am all for the free market, but only with a regulating system making it not breaking some laws, like defamation of products and misinformation of the public. I think it would be preferable for people to decide for themselves what is a fact and what is not, b ut to do what you say above you've got to have some organization get into the truth determining business, and it must be far far more powerful than any other organization. That might be OK if there was some way to guarantee that such a organization was always led by a genius who was also a saint, but unfortunately such paragons are a little hard to find.
You also need such an organization to say who owns what and who has violated a contract and who has committed murder and who has committed fraud, etc.
