Should we readers always believe on what is written at the newspaper?

Answer

No we shouldn't. We can read the story and take the context out of it, but not believe everything we read on that particular subject. Reporters want to get that good scoop and will often get information wrong, and newspaper companies want to sell papers so they can sensationalize things. Often the media is used for propaganda as well. One has to use their own mind to decide what to believe and what not to believe.

I always go by rule of thumb when I listen to the news or read the newspaper. It's much like someone telling you gossip about a friend. Now wouldn't you like to get both sides of the story? So, treat the newspapers the same way because you are only getting one side of the story.
