News: Information about the world, from around the world, structured and presented by the media channels, which we then choose to accept as factual, actual evidence that the event occurs in the manner presented.

Sometimes. But did you ever ask yourself, or anyone around you for that matter, about the validity of the reporting source? Like, who owns the newspaper or magazine? Or, more clearly, who is paying a particular writer to present those details to you?

At some point, you have to trust your source. But in my opinion, the more sources you have available to you, and the more varied their backgrounds are, the more ground you have to stand on so to speak.
