By legitimate you mean state approved propaganda source lol.

edit: it's pretty funny how libs love to talk about how freedom of press is a big differentiating factor in the west compare to say China where media is more actively state controlled. However, these same people will dismiss any source that falls out of state approved mainstream. When alternative media exists, but it's dismissed, then the end result is no different from having explicit state censorship. The only difference is that people do the work of the censors themselves.
