I have to say that since following the events in Ukraine, very little being reported in the US MSM is even reporting what’s going on let alone the facts.....

...it’s like MSM here reports when it’s politically advantageous to do so....there’s much happening not even reported....let alone falsely when it is.

What is interesting are the reporters ‘on the ground’ appear to be monitoring each other on line......if one or the other doesn’t get it right it’s short order before they’re corrected...and at least questioned to make it confirmed or not.

So once these guys “have it” the news then is sent to MSM headquarters where it’s determined what and when or if it will be a story or not.

Currently there seems to be a “Block” on anything reported that would make the US appear in a bad light...it all must be geared toward blaming Russia/Putin...or Ukrainians themselves.

Many moving parts in Ukraine with guns and anger.....

For a long time I have read the Western MSM as a criminal investigator reads testimony, looking for the lies, omissions and disinformation, and using history versus revisionist history to expose the trends and mechanisms of propaganda.

It, and experience, helps a lot.

I absolutely agree with any cynicism towards the MSM, but sometimes it’s a simple motivation: if they don’t have reporters on the ground, they don’t cover it. And they no longer have the resources they used to, nor does anyone want to go where they are no longer welcome. Consider Baghdad’s housing of CNN personnel.
