> how does one evaluate a news source for its trustworthiness
You evaluate multiple sources to independently verify information, and you hold each source up to consistently good ethical behavior and accurate information.
Basically, treat journalism like science, but a little more fast and loose (literally) because you can't wait for 10 years of research to determine how to act politically or economically.
