I agree with you but my point is media gets news from sources.This sources is like i said states or politicians etc.

The media is under public scrutiny. Meaning that they open themselves to being publically questioned by their rivals. That is how CBS was exposed...their rivals questioned their sources and found out that the documents were fabricated.
I trust them because they are under public scrutiny. They have a lot to lose if they get caught in a lie. So it is unlikely they will try to lie.

For example NATO said he destroy many Serbian tanks and army. In the end of the war it was deny officially.

Then the media didn't misreport it. They reported what NATO said.
In your example, you can claim that
NATO lied. But the
media didn't lie.

So first you hear lies & you believed.

A mistake isn't a lie. A lie is deliberate. A mistake is not.
The figures that were reported, were accurate...that is, the media accurately reported what NATO claimed.
