I take mainstream media with caution. While it provides quick updates, I cross-check with multiple sources. For example, during major events, I compare BBC, Al Jazeera, and independent outlets to spot bias or missing context. Balance is key.
I do not completely believe the mainstream media. Some are only lying. They are paid to tell lies, and they do not hesitate to do so in order to earn money. And they can be biased, which can be annoying.
