Yes, as you can trust that you actually receive the data the server
wants you to see. If a MITM attack happens, they can serve you the wrong
news for example, wrong governmental information (deluding you to do
illegal acts)

It depends strongly on how you verify that PGP signature (same rules
apply to TLS though)
