To be clear, I would much rather read a left-biased news publication than a right-biased one, because one side has invented reality wholecloth, while the other still (generally) believes facts in context speak for themselves.
But if you’re trying to be a thoughtful and rational person, I wouldn’t exclusively read their articles, and when I do, I’d look for the overarching points and try to avoid getting bogged down in the rhetoric.

I just want to compliment you on one of the most thorough and nuanced replies I’ve ever witnessed to such a question.
Thank you! Nice comments are always appreciated!
