    You mean like what Trump supporters consume? And Fox, MSNBC, and all the other “news” outlets? How is that freedom working for the people in the land of the free?

    There may be differences in the scale of bias and propaganda, but nobody should live under the illusion that they have access to unbiased news.

      You are still drawing an equivalence between availability of information in America compared to Russia, implying they are equal. They are not and what you are doing is disingenuous.

        How many Western journalists are on the ground in Ukraine right now?

        Ukraine has a very strong incentive to distribute misinformation… War morale and public support is essential to Ukraine’s defence.

          You think there aren’t journalists in Ukraine? Nolan Peterson, Sarah Rainsford, Lynsey Addario. I can go on

            How many haven’t been told by their respective government office to keep morale high in their reporting?

        Maybe try reading the second paragraph in my reply. You may find that I do recognize that there are differences.

        But if you think the availability of information you enjoy gives you some kind of special insight into what’s happening in the war… I don’t know what to tell you.

          Maybe I did read your second paragraph before I even posted my comment. Maybe I decided it was a very weak attempt to “both sides” your bad take with some very milquetoast centrism.

            Ah, so I have to take sides and join you in believing everything I’m fed through the news? No thanks.
