(ps.com is obviously on the list!  )
As always, your insight is much appreciated.

Most of the QP's spend decades reading from multiple sources both classified and unclassified. All are taught to assess sources and information. Not all classified information is reliable but it usually more credible than most "pay for information" such as mass media sources. When a source makes a living "selling" information such as news much of what one reads can be very bias.
Or when one agency such as Reuters ot the Associated Press start disiminating fake pictures or news with a left liberal slant one needs to be aware of "who" is selling what to whom...
Don't rely on one single source, read many concerning your topic of interest and then make an informed opinion on your own.
