Jesus paid a debt he did not owe,
Because I owed a debt I could not pay.
For Germany/Switzerland I find a media navigator useful, which inserts media into a matrix with the axes left/right and Nato-compliant/Nato-critical:
swprs.org/medien-navigator
Due to this thread, I've just looked it up after a while and found: Now there is matrix for English media, too. Have not checked it, yet. But I assume, it's useful, too:
swprs.org/media-navigator
For the German media matrix, I've found out that one should read one or more media so that the "centre of gravity" of all these media is in the middle of the matrix. Then you get the whole picture (at least the chances are better). Don't know if this applies for the English media matrix.
PS:
I sometimes read deutsch.rt.com. There you have it, I've said "Jehova"! But it's really necessary as a compensation for German mainstream media, I mean in order to get a more balanced information input. I don't say RT is the pure and complete truth. But it helps in order to get a more complete picture.

In my experience - there are no news sources that are fair and balanced.
I still use a multiple outlet approach. If a story is interesting, I’ll read about it in multiple news outlets.
Initial Sources:
CNN
New York Times
Washington Post
Deeper Dive:
Wall Street Journal
National Public Radio (yes NPR)
BBC
Deepest Dive:
Al Jazeera
Christian Science Monitor
Reality Check:
The Onion
Babylon Bee
What about RT? The German RT appears to me as a good counterbalance for German mainstream media. But I don't know the English RT.

RT and its many tendrils sometimes do some very fine reporting, investigation and analysis. Trouble is, most of that's purely to lend cover to all the disinformation. You want to talk fake news for real? Not the mealy-mouthed, we-don't-know-how-good-we've-actually-got-it version we whine about stateside?
RT. Enjoy it for the good reporting; enjoy it for the bad reporting; enjoy it for what it puts in that isn't true and what it leaves out that is; enjoy it for trying to read the tea leaves in Moscow and determining what the Kremlin wants people to know and what it doesn't.
But don't mistake it for a legit news source.
Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?
