    But surely we can agree not to use SCMP, RT, and VoA? Just because things get bad doesn’t mean we have to actively reach for the bottom.

    Places like Al Jazeera and the Associated Press exist.

      I don’t have a big problem with a whitelist of “mostly credible” sources but you’ll have trouble gaining a consensus. I personally don’t trust anything out of the US anymore. While AP & Reuters are at the better end they filter and spin just like all the US govt mouthpieces in the US MSM.

      You need examples from each of the main propaganda camps to be able to pastiche an approximation of the truth together.
