Even a democratically elected government is illegitimate if it required the power of state run propaganda to attain power. This is true because the process by which they achieved their outcome was artificially achieved by deceiving the voters when they placed their vote.
There's another logical conclusion from your premise - the press (corporations) is running the government, not the other way around.
