They can be, aye, but if you use multiple sources 'they can't all be wrong'.

indeed they cant be all wrong, but they can misleading :P

theres always somewhat of a warped truth in the titles therefore not wrong, but not the full story which changes it entirely from what the title leads on

Yeah, they like to sensationalise / use click-bait and shock tactics in order to sell more papers or adverts. I'm not too bothered though. I'm far too sceptical to believe any of it myself, I just like to see what others might pick up and plagiarise in conversation basically. If the article is interesting then I'll do a bit of research, but honestly, there's so much that goes on in the world I cannot be bothered half the time. I keep track of news for others sake really. Lol

Al Jazeera, yeah, I sometimes tune in to them on youtube, they seem to be quite 'extensive' with their coverage. Euro news is another one I've recently picked up; they have a segment of no talking (just visuals) called 'no comment' which I enjoy.

Does anyone here think news should be purely factual? or would that be boring?
- and is it even possible? since we're all human, we're bound to have some bias
- also, a lot of news is 'we don't have all the information yet' (but they can't say that)
- i've always been interested in the ways presenters word a story (adjectives, tone, etc).
