I trust a lot of major news sources more than some officials...Bloomberg and the Economist that are without a huge slant are my go-tos.
Here's something I think of often from a great show, The Newsroom:
Will McAvoy: What does winning look like to you?
Mackenzie MacHale: Reclaiming the fourth estate. Reclaiming journalism as an honorable profession. A nightly newscast that informs a debate worthy of a great nation. Civility, respect and a return to what's important; the death of *****iness; the death of gossip and voyeurism; speaking truth to stupid. No demographic sweet spot; a place where we can all come together.
That's what I seek in my news. I don't always agree with my go-to op-ed pieces, but I think they are a good source of news.
ETA:
Mackenzie MacHale: You know what you left out of your sermon?
That America is the only country on the planet that, since its birth, has said over and over and over that we can do better. It's part of our DNA. People will want the news if you give it to them with integrity. Not everybody, not even a lot of people: 5%. And 5% more of anything is what makes the difference in this country. So we can do better.
