    By looking at its country origin, funding, associations and so on?

      So for every single news article you completely research every facet of a company? You have way more patience than i do. But that probably is what it takes on the internet today.

      I’d assume once you research a company though that you wouldn’t research it again, you just save yourself time and go based on your original research?

      Or do you check up on each and everytime?

      Do you have a list of ones you trust?

        I research news outlets once a year or so to keep in check. Then I cross check with Mwdia Navigator chart on SWPRS, which has zero external funding and is an independent anonymous group, and funnily, absolutely smeared up on Wikipedia in a disgusting manner. You will not see such smearing on any other fact checker.

        You can learn here how to work around the bias of fact checking and learn how to do it yourself. SWPRS even reiterates your point about Google.
