Fair point, not sure I wholly agree. The site I cited is Media Bias. Stick a half dozen names in, Sky Ch4, ITV, Fox, Breitbart, The Sun, The Mail. You will get a good sense of what is fair, accurate reporting from your own knowledge. Have a go, I recommend it.
The BBC are at it again....

I thought you had to be intelligent to be brainwashed?
It's not true, of course. brainwashing has nothing to do with intelligence.
But those that are easily brainwashed are in the following category:
Someone who is emotionally vulnerable, who suffered abuse or neglect as a child or whose relationship with their family is strained
Interesting. Maybe I'm not so paranoid.

In September 2024, after The Jewish Chronicle was forced to apologise for publishing a string of fabricated stories about the Gaza war, Alan Rusbridger queried how Gibb could, as a member of the BBC's editorial guidelines and standard committee, sit on a panel and participate in an upcoming review of the impartiality of the BBC’s war coverage.[16]

I think you are. The BBC is an easy target.
They have so many competing interests to balance. It must be a nightmare.
I just think it's important to regularly remind the kind of people that trust the BBC unequivocally.

Probably the most reliable news source on the planet.
Glad to see they have checks and balances.
If folk are not happy with the neutrality of Sky News or BBC News, they can always brighten their day with some right wing bullshít.
Look at this link full of lies and propaganda about the cricket, the weather and local crime and health news. Outrageous.

I personally find it hard to listen to any news about the Israel Gaza conflict because there is so much weaponisation of anti semitism, journalists are afraid to ask searching questions in case they get sacked.
I don’t trust anything Israeli or Palestinian spokespeople say.

As you couldn't be bothered to read the link ..
"(Robbie) Gibb had "flatly ignored my questions about his role as the sole named director of the JC (Jewish Chronicle). Nor will he tell anyone whose money is behind the paper he 'owns'".[15] According to former Chronicle journalist Lee Harpin, Gibb made a habit of popping into the office and checking what stories were topping the news list; Harpin was told the new owners wanted more views "well to the right of the Tory party".[16
