I try to be critical in my reading, in that I often wonder if the author is pursuing an
agenda, or genuine in their attempt to only "report" the news, as objectively as possible.
I don't believe anyone can be perfectly objective, but some can be better than others.
FOX news is an example of propaganda, in my opinion. I like PBS for more (more, not perfect) objectivity.
