Yes, and I should write bug-free code, and doctors should never make mistakes. If you have any examples of a completely neutral news outlet that never made any blunders, I'd be very interested to know about and follow them. Until then, I see no point in comparing anyone against an unattainable ideal which can only exist in one's imagination. I try to correct for their biases by reading Kremlin propaganda (and US, and Chinese, and some others) and comparing what they are saying. Know of any better ways?
The amount of junk isn't boolean, it matters how much you have to filter. If you can find news with less junk, you can filter them with less effort. And big news are reported by everyone so you can't miss them.
It is the century XXI, and the mainstream way seems to be subscribing to Telegram channels whose vibe resonates with you.
Yes, you will be living in a tiny bubble. But at least you do not get to read propaganda pieces trying to derive prefabricated conclusions out of irrelevant small events. If anything large happens, you are going to hear of it earlier or later.
If you really want balanced coverage, choose a source from the other side which is so blatantly propagandist that you can have good laughs instead of grinding your teeth.
I am reading The Guardian for that purpose.
Perhaps there are better ways to consume your news, but I don't know these.
I think you misread their comment. If you didn't realize, you also misquoted their comment (unless it was edited).

I believe they mean "the mainstream way" puts you into a tiny bubble, but they go on to say:
> But at least you do not get to read propaganda pieces trying to derive prefabricated conclusions out of irrelevant small events. If anything large happens, you are going to hear of it earlier or later.
Thus, I believe they were advocating for a tiny bubble -- not accusing the previous commenter of being in a tiny bubble.
