How does RSA distribute public keys?

Today, I reviewed the RSA encryption algorithm. I always thought that after creating the public and private keys, I would propagate the public key to the network, encrypt the plaintext with the public key, and decrypt it with the private key after transmission.
until today I have seen Wikipedia"s

you don't read carefully:

(NMague) is the public key, and (NMague d) is the private key. Alice passes her public key (NMagnee) to Bob , and hides her private key (Nmeme d) .

never says e is a public key.
