2) They definitely focus on different things and have different views on the same events.

3) No, it is almost impossible to tell a story without your perspective bleeding out as you focus on different things.

4) You need to know that the reporter/organization has pre-existing views and dogmas while consuming the media and read between the lines. Often there are things they they don't report on the jump when reading a story. That works with people too, its what they are not telling you that tells you everything you need to know.
Based on the sites you mentioned, it looks like CBC is your source from the left. I read their stuff occasionally, but for some reason, don't that often. I think I'll add them as a source actually.
