To be honest, most news outlets. You never know who owns what.
For example, Euronews was bought by Orbán aligned peeps a few years back. It's not blatant propaganda now, but something similar has happened in Hungary before, where a news site (index.hu) has been bought and continued to be sane, only to go on full blast at critical moments.

It should have that disclaimer, yes.
That said, so should the Times of Israel, which also gets regularly posted here.

Yes it's shocking to hear of factual events outside the hegemonic narrative.
