The problem is that if applied rigourously, this would also mean banning all mainstream outlets.

What a ridiculous false equivalence.

Before the russians invaded, Western mainstream media reported that the russians were preparing to invade Ukraine.

Mainstream media [kremlin propaganda] in the russian federation mocked Western mainstream media and insisted that the russians weren't about to invade.

The two are not the same.
