Yes, but these 'real news' as we could call them, will probably have a legal requirement to be posted on a government-owned source also (and I'm assuming this source would be free of twisted profit incentives). So, still not required to immerse yourself in the constant stream of noise and manipulation that is 'the news'.
There are new/updated laws every single day, in my country I can read them online, 99.99% of them aren't presented in mainstream news.
Don't read mainstream newspapers or watch CNN/Fox news to be an informed citizen, that's not how it works.
