I wish there was something like based.cooking but for news, but the fact is that giournalism is biased in general, so I still would have to look for other sources

To think that people would have opinions that influence their writing. For shame. That doesn't happen anywhere else. /s

Honestly you need to understand your sources biases and use multiple sources then you'll get close to the truth. Or at least what you want to be the truth because you have your biases too.

EDIT: thank you for that link. It's a breath of fresh air.

I'll take the opportunity to plug ground.news - it's a site that shows all media sites it can find about a particular news story, displays their political leanings etc, their general writing bias and/or likelihood of misinformation, and then attempts to summarise the story.
