That’s because you understand that the government of the time will have a slant and it’s always obvious what that slant will be. You can then interpret accordingly.
Exactly the same with proper media outlets - you know what slant the guardian or the telegraph will have.
As an aside, quick quiz question. Who coined the term ‘the mainstream media.’?

Rishi Sunak - Look me in the eye on 18:52 - Feb 15 with 569 views
Anyone who believes everything they're told by the BBC or similar these days needs their head read, but that's no reason to take whatever is being spouted by various "alternative" sources as Gospel either. The BBC has been utterly discredited lately, but no more so than some of the Youtube loonies quoted chapter and verse in some quarters.
Get your news from a variety of sources and make your own mind up.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Rishi Sunak - Look me in the eye on 06:55 - Feb 16 with 461 views
There is selective reporting, ignoring stories that don't fit an agenda, together with large amounts of bias across all media these days. I am amazed by the differences between left and right wing media it seems like different worlds. The BBC is losing its way, listening to programmes like Today and PM on Radio 4 you have to question some of the editorial choices,the huge amount of opinion and the basis of questions asked by the presenters. Politics now dominates these programmes as if nothing else matters.
