Virtually all news sources have wrecked their reputations on the twin hazards of money and politics.
I use most "news" sources as a reverse barometer nowadays: the opposite of what they say is more likely to be true. This is because they either twist the data to fit their agenda, or ignore the data that go against it.
Therefore, I terminated all print media years ago. Even though I still have TV and the Internet which have sources fully as guilty, I'm not paying extra for their news content and thus don't feel so much like a fool to have it and yet ignore it.
Unfortunately, even supposedly objective "science" sources nowadays have proven to do the same: either twist the facts to fit the spiel, or fail to report all of the facts for the same effect. The current virus from China is an example.
