unfortunately all media is biased. my approach is to simply read from conflicting sources. There is still alot of information provided in economist publications, but I accept and agree with your position, its the same as the bbc and guardian - you need to get different points of view in order to figure it out. the NS story is a really good case study.
All media is biased and people need to be aware that just because you're reading multiple publications i.e. Reuters, BBC, Guardian, Economist, WSJ, etc, that doesn't necessarily mean you will get an accurate view just because of the diversity.
We're English speakers, and all of these sources are western, which undeniably has a position in this war and generally wants for Russia to be degraded. As such, media coverage and framing of this conflict is biased on a collective basis, and that's been the case since the start of the war. Real diversity would be probably reading Russian, Chinese, etc.
