Imo, trustworthiness is all about which side represents best your material interests. As a worker, the Epoch Times, the Business Insider, or the Washington Post are diametrically opposed to my interests, because they are owned by and represent the interests of the Bourgeoisie. What's important is thus finding a source from your own class. CGTN, The Morning Star, or Mintpress being a workers-funded, they represent my class interests best, and are therefore trustworthy sources. To determine this is a bit tricky ofc, because 1) you have to know on which "side" you are, and 2) you have to follow the money and understand how those sources are funded.

TL;DR iranintl is a rag (if you are a worker!) because it's by and for the Saudi aristocracy. But if you are a powerful aristocrat, then I'd say its an adequate news website.

I already know which "side" I am on though, the side that's asking to be well informed of the facts, not something slanted to some "class warfare" idealogue.

Then I'm afraid finding your luck will take some time, if not your whole lifetime.
