There are a number of ways to do this. One is to see if other stations corroborated the information; today, you can go to the websites of various networks and see which stories they are reporting, and you can also go to reputable news magazines like Time or The Week. Another way is to use reliable fact-checking websites like Snopes.com and Politifact.com and Factcheck.org to see whether there are myths or misrepresentations in the stories. And you can also ask some professors of journalism: some of them write blogs or columns about the media. Check the website of the Columbia Journalism Review (CJR.org) for one example; there are some excellent resources on that site.
