If one wants complete and accurate, do what I think you and Tubemonkey suggest: Read several sources, and learn to recognize the biases. Add it in a little follow up of primary source materiel when practical.

Otherwise, just pick a source like you'd pick a film or restaurant critic: Find one who's taste you agree with. Of course, my approach of reading none of them is just as useful, and takes less effort.
Back in the day when the weekly newsmags mattered, a group of us at work shared our subscriptions to Time, Newsweek, US News, and The Economist. Made it easier to flag some of the lies.
