Anyone with basic reading comprehension could understand that Gaga wasn't shading Bey, Bey's husband, or U2 at all. However, that's too much to expect from most pop music fans anyways  |
The Beyhive doesn't have basic reading comprehension.

So, I think the more the media can help us to support the artist and support music in a way that's maybe less critical for journalists that are not as knowledgeable about music and help to just spread the music

I could see the shade if she called the spontaneous release tactic "cheap", but she didn't say that.
The above quote is essentially saying if the media were to support artists more in a positive manner, if publications were less critical of the music, and if everyone with the means and power to spread the music did so...then artists wouldn't be put in the position where they have to come up with an unconventional, extravagant or shocking tactic/gimmick/trick/marketing tool alongside their project's release.
She is saying the general public would be captured more in 2014 by positive word of mouth and media coverage ala Adele.

Yeah, I'm all caught up now and Lady Gaga's comment wasn't "shade," in the technical sense, but it was, without a doubt, bitter and passive aggressive. Gaga's "trick" statement is equivalently as passive aggressive as Beyoncé's "People don't make albums anymore, they just try to sell quick lil' singles" statement. The parallels are virtually identical. Beyoncé was being passive aggressive, because her singles don't sell nearly as well as other artists. Lady Gaga was being passive aggressive, because her album, "ARTPOP," didn't sell nearly as well as "BEYONCÉ."

She faces the same climate as every other artist regarding the media. If you want positive word of mouth, do something positive. This is basic PR.

Most of the "martyrdom" manifested during the ARTPOP era. Instead of
"stopping the drama and starting the music," she did exactly the opposite.
I really hope she sheds it before her next pop era.

Just cause they got Keyshia Cole and Keri Hilson jumping scared they think they can do that to every artist. Correcting a statement is not being scared of people who really have no power other than to not buy the records they didn't buy to begin with. Sick of these girls acting like they are Garados when they Magikarp.

If she called it a "cheap" tactic, then it wouldn't be shade. It would be blatant and a straightforward diss. 
I see it like this (and I'm sure many others who are not apart of the BeyHive or Monster clan see it this way too) - she was being passive aggressive and complaining how people are releasing their music nowadays and what she thinks they should be doing. Most of her interview comes off as if she is disappointed in how popular music and culture is being handled now. It all sounds like time machine talk. Like people complained about how Beyonce dissed "quick singles artists," then she turned around and did something people viewed as "eventful" and "game-changing." Will Gaga do something like that? Or will she keep talking about or exaggerating the old days? She wasn't being malicious, but she surely wasn't praising what they did.

You know what I mean. I should've put I could understand the outrage if she called it cheap. I agree with what you're saying, I don't think our views are that different actually.

But, it's not that simple 
Adele released 21, that's all and it spread like wildfire. Why? Great music + praise from nearly every celeb and major publication you can imagine + positive word of mouth.
I remember everyone talking about her and her music. My old ass aunties, my classmates, teachers, etc 21 sold because of word of mouth, which begins with the media. But, this is OT

The real kii here is that all these stans can sit on their asses & keep pulling each others hair out while Gaga & Beyonce remain friendly & stay having respect for each other. 
Stan culture truly is the PITS. Oh well!
