I can imagine animosity from the leadership, for example classifying most journalists as "fake news", contributing to violence from the front line against them.

Which in turn was perhaps caused by "the news" going from being mostly journalists to mostly pundits with the rise of mass media.

Most news isn’t that, just cable news.

Where can you find credible, unbiased news coverage?

I've started watching foreign news coverage of the US. It seems better, but I can't yet tell how much; all news still love the sensational stuff.

There's no such thing as unbiased news coverage. Any news outlet has more stories to report than they have capacity to report. They must exhibit some bias to control for what they show. (Or, alternatively, I guess they could just randomly select news stories, but I don't think that'd be very compelling.)

Or they could only write about things they have thoroughly researched, not try to write about every event that happens, many of which they are just regurgitating from another source without any additional fact-checking or analysis anyway.

Ok, how do you select the things to research without bias?
