It was trained on corpus full of mainstream media lies, why would you have expected otherwise? It's by far the most common deflection in its training set.
It's easy to recognize and laugh at the AI replying with the preprogrammed narrative, I'm still waiting for the majority of people realizing they are given the same training materials, non-stop, with the same toxic narratives, and becoming programmed in the same way, and that is what results in their current worldview.
And no, it's not enough to be "skeptic" of mainstream media. It's not even enough to "validate" them. Or to go to other sources. You need to be reflective enough to realize that they a pushing a flawed reasoning methods, and then abusing them again and again, to get you used to their brand of reasoning.
Their brand of reasoning is just basically reasoning with brands. You're given negative sounding words for things they want you to think are bad, and positive sounding words for things they want you to think are good, and continuously reinforce these connections. They brand true democracy (literally rule of the people) as populism and tell you it's a bad thing. They brand freedom of speech as "misinformation". They brand freedom as "choice" so that you will not think of what you want to do, but which of the things they allow you to do will you do. Disagree with the scientific narrative? You're "science denier". Even as a professional scientist. Conspiracy theory isn't a defined word - it is a brand.
You're trained to judge goodness or badness instinctively by their frequency and peer pressure, and produce the explanation after your instinctive decision, instead of the other way around.
