I’ve stopped paying attention to what any regular news source says about anything themselves since it is all basically profit driven and therefore unreliable. Rather I just pay attention to sources where I can see what is said or done from the horses mouth directly, and then pay attention to people’s reactions to such things.
These are usually few and far between, but I’m talking about what was written or said by specific persons with the clear source of it coming from their personally verified outlets.
I also wait on this information before thinking too much about it as well because god knows if someone catches something out for being AI generated or a deepfake or what have you in this day and age. After a few days it gains some actual credibility as coming from that person and being the genuine article.
It is also important to still not trust what any one person says about something else as well, or even multiple persons. I can never really trust what is said by anyone as facts anymore - rather this only gives insight into that specific persons opinions on the other thing.
In the face of mountains of clear evidence and individually verified sources from many multiple persons - then and only then can I begin to trust something as fact.
