For State and local news, Spectrum news channel actually does one heck of a good job, at least I think. They do a great job of presenting the news without showing any political bias, much more so than the local Network affiliates, anyway.
Spectrum isn't something available to me for state and local news. RTD and my local paper do a decent job, though my local paper has been on a downhill slide for years. But in all honesty, as long as you know what you are reading you can get news from most reputable sources without much of a bias. WaPo, for example, has a slant to it, but that's primarily for analysis and opinion pieces. Its harder news is thorough and neutral. Same for WSJ, NYT, and a host of others. Of course, a lot of those papers also rely on wire services for some of their stories. Having a subscription to a newspaper actually supports the AP, usually, because some of those funds are going to go back to them.
