You are totally correct. There is an utter crisis in news media today. There is no desire for journalistic integrity and the bias of each source is as plain as day.
You can trust nothing at face value anymore. Even if there was a news source that kept it to "just the facts" minus all spin and hyperbole bias will creep in via WHICH facts are being reported.
What makes one homicide or police shooting national news while the steady stream of deaths in Chicago go unmentioned?

Or better yet, why not also show the number of people who die every day heart disease and cancer? The media seems resolute in warping our perception of risks toward political agendas.
If there are ways to aggregate this kind of data daily or weekly it would be an excellent opportunity so use algorithms and user applied filters to attempt to create a source of news with the least bias possible.
Edit: haha and now this article has been flagged for the second time. Pretty hilarious how determined people are to maintaining their echo chambers.
