Assuming you're not trolling....
When one narrative is objective reality and the other nonsense, you can't "both sides" that. One is fact, the other nonsense.
Your best bet is to stick to the wire services (AP, Reuters) since they're pretty much facts only, have high journalistic standards, and don't have significant biases.
I recommend checking news sources against Media Bias Fact Check (https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/exclusive-source-bias-ratings-search/) and looking for low bias and high credibility. MBFC is ran by a non-profit, independent agency and is highly rated.
They 100% are trolling. The account is literally an hour old and they've posted half a dozen articles about how vaccine bad and transgenders are rapists.
Oh, well, then. I was trying to be generous and give the benefit of the doubt.
It sounds like you're just going to muddy the waters even further. There's nothing I can do to stop you, so you do you I guess.
That's not being a troll that's just being an idiot
