Okay, so other news sources also can be biased/wrong/misrepresent science ... how does that make this Breitbart article more accurate? or Breitbart a more objective news source?

Nah, same bullshit (neither more nor less fake), just in the other direction. Best to read both left-ist and right-ist media to avoid bias. Although personally I sometimes find Breitbart more agreeable, as they seem opposed to political correctness and unafraid of voicing inconvenient truths (opinions?).
