| I know my comment will be downvoted for sure because it isn't a popular idea, but I'm still gonna comment on this. Reading news about any foreign country, including China, only from US MSM, is inherently biased (sampling bias). Maybe consider reading news from Chinese outlets in this case? I know people will start arguing that Chinese outlets are mainly propagandas because they are controlled by governments and they are not independent... But, but are we sure that Deutsche Welle or Japan Times are unbiased? For example, Deutsche Welle is funded by German government. [1], and the editors of the Japan Times were appointed by their government [2]. Yes, German and Japanese governments are more trustworthy than the Chinese government, but every country has its own foreign policy and political agenda. Are we sure that we are not being "brainwashed" by those media outlets? This is happening within the US as well. Think conservative news outlets vs liberal outlets. Citations:
