>> they tell mostly truth, but 5-10% of it of propaganda

> If your bar for “not propaganda” is 95% truthful, what news site is left that passes that test?

You misunderstand the test. A better way to state it would be: "they tell mostly truth, but 5-10% is deliberate, institutionally-sanctioned lies."

A lot of people can't seem to tell the difference between false statements and lies, and conflate the concepts all the time. Add hindsight into the mix, and it gets even worse.
