Does anyone have a feed of official prominent news sources that post on Mastodon.
Are those flipboard accounts like @BBCNews official?
@SwiftOnSecurity @BBCNews here's the official list of the BBC ones from the BBC themselves:

@SwiftOnSecurity Flipboard is a professional news aggregation service, they used to be the default news provider on Samsung's launcher before Google news.
I believe every one of their fedi accounts just mirrors the stories from each source that makes it through.
@SwiftOnSecurity So many people have replied, including Flipboard's own Mastadon service, so I can only add that in hunting down the answer to this question I found an article with a discussion of the history: https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/07/with-this-latest-deal-flipboard-looks-to-build-a-news-ecosystem-beyond-x/
@SwiftOnSecurity That's one of the cool things about @Flipboard being federated
