The AP news ticker has its own bias and narrative, as does Reuters. There is no truth in any text, only narrative. So long as you are reading trying to find truth in a single text you will fall into error.

If they contain only facts, there is no narrative.

The only narrative is the selection of what facts to report. Without that you get lost in the deluge and get equally uninformed.
