It’s a start, but the goal should be to have multiple options. Any monopoly can either be bought or abused and we should work towards making those as hard as possible.

You also need a third, unbiased source, then cross-reference the information gathered from all sides and build a reasonable conclusion.

But if that’s too much work, then join the side that benefits you. After all…

"The greatest happiness is to vanquish your enemies, to chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth, to see those dear to them bathed in tears, to clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters.

~ Genghis Khan"

Or the abridged version:

“To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.”

~ Conan the Barbarian, as copy-pasted from random website
