Hi Tim,
Firstly the whole media Western controlled argument is easily dispelled by the fact that most Western media outlets are controlled by people or employ people who push their own agendas and outlets can easily be found with totally opposing opinions, you quoted Ukraine Gaza and the pandemic, it’s easy to find opposing views and both sides of each of those stories, I mistrust any who only push one opinion. Simple fact Mizman et al only posts from sources who only tell one side of the story and where those comments cannot be found anywhere other than on those outlets. An example being his Sullivan reported comments yesterday, only reported on TASS, Pravda and Russian telegram one of whom the previous post was “our glorious boys liberate another village from the Nazis”.
So of course owners and editors want to push their own agendas but the fact that often those agendas are completely opposed to other owners and editors agendas prove that there is a freedom to the press and that the public has the freedom to read both sides of a story.
Alternative press is no different in the fact that it pushes its own agendas and no different in its objectives, if you follow the money click bait money making pandering to those who support that view and people who generate an income from their online activity.
The western media are openly reporting Ukraines current difficulties and the reasons, can you say the same about the Russian media when Russia has had setbacks in Ukraine?
