One compromise is to find a news source that is at least open about its bias. The Economist is a famous example of this: it will openly declare support (and opposition) for particular political candidates and policies.

The Economist at least seems to be good at giving its opponents space within its pages (for those of us who still subscribe to the print edition).

So while they have a bias they acknowledge, it isn't a "beat them into submission" type of bias.
