The appeal of state media is that the bias is obvious.

We know who's paying the bills at the CBC or Xinhua, but it's gonna be a lot more subtle for the local broadcaster who mysteriously drops their investigative series right after the target buys a premium ad package.

It also means you can triangulate. If the BBC and TASS both report the same details on a story, those are probably legit.
