Commercially-controlled media regularly charges independent media with producing "fake news", a phrase which arose from The Deep State's "fake news website" project to try to boost flagging trust in corporate media.
Functioning as Independent?
An interesting case are some state media that gives output similar to independent media. These media outlets are often financed by states Western governments have an adversarial line towards, and that don't get their voices heard in Western corporate media. The most known ones are Russia Today. Sputnik, Press TV and TeleSUR, but also others.
These channels employ or let speak Western dissidents, thereby giving the same output as Western independent media, and of high quality, but can follow unstated official editorial lines in some areas. The Qatari channel Al Jazeera could have been counted here in the start of its transmissions, when it dared to show contents that displeased the powers that be, but it experienced a drastic editorial change in the late 2000s.
