There are non-"mainstream" sources which are highly factual and not editorialized. See AP and Reuters. Sadly, their reports are commonly resummarized in a biased/slanted way and used by the MSM. When you see a "Reuters reports that" or "According to a report by the AP", skip the MSM and go directly to the sources.

This is kind of a bizarre summary; I'd consider AP and Reuters to be the mainest possible stream of media.

How so? AP and Reuters don't have their own TV stations or printed services to my knowledge (though they do have online offerings).

This is what people are talking about when they say "MSM", the deranged stuff you find on Fox News and CNN and so on.
