No.

You know how boxers don’t beat up their trainers?

This is like that.

The show runner insisted on telling “their version of the story”.

Which… let’s put it like this:

If you’re making a TV series about a book series written by a world famous author, and you think you can do a variation / “your take” on the story, because you think you’re just that great of a writer, artist, director, etc., then you better actually be on his level.

1984 literally has a manifesto describing what’s happening.

In fact, the brainwashing of the kids in 1984 to report on their parents having / reading / discussing “controversial media” is a major element of the dystopia. Those media are not explicitly named, but I don’t think they have to be.
