media companies only care about profits, like everyone else. So if you want accurate news you have to fact check everything through multiple sources.

This, so very, very much.

But it's not a terrible idea to start with AP and Reuters directly (before their stories are filtered through everyone else's biases) as a good jumping-off point. Especially since most news sources you read/watch are just going to be rehashing the stories from AP and Reuters anyway. With the base story from them, you can do a bit of digging to fact-check.and verify.

ALWAYS remember that repetition doesn't always equal veracity, though. A dozen sites repeating the exact same version of a story might just be repeating ONE source's flawed story over and over. Knowing WHERE a story is coming from originally can be a huge help in knowing whether or not you should trust it.
