I'm curious which sources of information you would recommend as accurate.
This might explain why our views on things are so different.
I am glad to see that you truly recognize me as a person who is being polite with the other participants of this forum and quite respectful toward diverging ideas.

I am not going to do any advertisement here. But even in the grocery store, I tend to buy less if I have to, but I’ll rather buy the vegetable with was produced in an organic and sustainable manner, that I know will be better for my overall health, rather than moving toward a more shiny and cheaper example of the same vegetable whose nutritious value tends to be much lower, who has been cultivated with a lot a pesticide etc. When I get shoes I try to get good shoes that will last for a few years rather than a cheap copy of the original that I will throw away in 5 or 6 months. So I am talking Big media here. But this does not include Fox New, or Sputnik News because for me “Big” is synonymous with independent, autonomous, who has a scientific approach (I want to be able to verify it, and I will want to compare it with other reliable media if I have doubts) etc. If I hear that that media channel is biased in any way, If it has links to any government, If it is withholding information, if it is breaking the ethics of journalism, there is a button for that on my search engine and I will not see it.
For instance there is ukrayinska Pravda that is appearing every day. I didn’t block it. I read it sometimes, but my preference is for news companies with names. But this is a matter of time rather than being biased.
Otherwise there is DOZHD. I am not a Russian speaker. But I know their history. It’s an independent news agency that was launched in 2010. Since February 2022 they are broadcasting from Riga in Latvia. And I know that there are several other independent Russian broadcasters in countries like Georgia, who have fled Russia, have set their studios in Tsiblissi, and are once again broadcasting in Russian language via Youtube (as far as I know).
Your second comment: During the January 2020 storming of the US capitol, a BBC reporter was asking a MAGA supporter “Do you believe the election was stolen”, The MAGA supporter said “Yes, from which new channel are you?”, She says “I’m from the BBC”, and the MAGA supporters said “That’s why you don’t believe the election was stolen”.
