isn't that the definition of spin? a fact would be medical costs being the leading cause of bankruptcies in the usa, you can of course spin it by saying it's the best in the world leaving out the tidbit that this is only true if you have the money for it
personally i don't like my news sugarcoated or sensationalized
snippets are snippets and how you perceive one side depends on how far you lean towards the other side
If every single media station spouted the same facts there'd only be one station. There is always going to be different stations putting 'spins' on facts that pander to their audience. They know who watch them, and they study what those people want to hear.
How much knowledge there is, fact checking, and the internet keep most false news at bay.
Per example, what Trump calls false news is merely what he considers to be false interpretations of what he says. He knows that it is this way, but the left media construes it into a way that makes it seem like he is saying the news doesn't use facts.
If you want perfectly concise statements, look up academic journals or historical records. Business data and federal script. You won't find much of it outside of there, and other like sources.
