Ah yes, The Intercept, founded by blatant Russian propagandist and “Ukraine had biolabs” conspiracy promoter Glenn Greenwald. Surely this article is unbiased and not at all misleading.
Right? The Intercept has been one of the foundational sites of Internet motivated journalism but every time they post something we’re once again expected to take them seriously.
Ah yes, character assassination that doesn’t address the content of the article – which quotes journalists from mutliple outlets and doesn’t involve Greenwald. A picture of unbiased, non-misleading discourse.

This message sponsored by liars who hate it when you point out their history of telling lies.
I guess he also forgot about “blatant Russian propagandist and “Ukraine had biolabs” conspiracy promoter” Victoria Nuland XD
Rather than believe something nefarious, I believe that is just Ukraine restricting possible leaks about its counteroffensive, which may or may not have begun.
Yeah The Intercept has had a curious history of saying things that benefit Russian foreign policy for a very long time now. Of course limiting access to the front lines of an active war is reasonable, especially when the environment and population are incredibly fluid. (This isn’t America vs the Viet Cong in 1970, this is people’s nephews vs their uncles and everyone’s got a smart phone in their pocket.)
Yeah there’s plenty of good reasons to care about their safety. I mean zalensky isn’t a billionaire with a submarine.
tl;dr:
Some Ukrainian journalists have also warned that military handlers’ tight oversight of journalists is skewing coverage of the war. The Ukrainian military doesn’t have a formal embed system - the process by which war journalists cover conflicts by tagging along troops in the field - and most press access consists of short, chaperoned visits to military positions further back than the actual front lines. As a result, stories about the front lines are often told by journalists visiting recently liberated areas or as secondhand accounts relayed by military leadership. Many of the journalists whose credentials were revoked more recently had at some point worked in Russian-held territories, sometimes as far back as 2014, when Russia first invaded Crimea and parts of eastern Ukraine. In May, military authorities also canceled all existing credentials and made journalists apply for new ones; several journalists said their new credentials were denied.
I am a bot in training. Suggestions?
“Ukraine calls for media silence ahead of counteroffensive”
Media: can we broadcast form the front lines?
Ukraine: no?
Media: surprised Pikachu face
Seems reasonable when you are on the offensive
