Re: Islam is a Peaceful Religion

well, i would say 'none of them,' or 'all of them, in context,' meaning their motivations must be taken into account, and their answers to pointed questions as to the differences in their stories weighed--which is about where their prejudices become revealed. But, carrying your analogy further, when one source downplays or completely omits information deemed newsworthy by others, it is to those others that you must at least reflect for information.

Really, i think it best to just mostly disregard any news, as it all seeks to form your opinion of events that usually have very little to do with how your domain gets nourished that day, imo, if you are truly not in the world. Any but local news strikes me as 'peering in,' to be honest, except maybe for the human interest pieces. I'm quick to ignore or change news that can only generate fear, especially 'from afar.' So i guess it depends upon what one seeks in 'news.' I look for breakthrough stories of others solving problems now.
