Hi from the UK, where one of our current scandals is the state broadcaster censoring parts of a documentary about the foreign office, directly at the foreign office's request, in order to remove comments made by Boris Johnson, in which he called the French 'turds'.
The government has argued, according to leaked memos, that Johnson’s comment could cause ‘significant damage’ to Britain and that it made a mockery of the Government’s aim in agreeing to the documentary, to ‘promote Global Britain to a UK audience’."
Hi from the former Soviet Union, where everything the state media says is true, and if it doesn't turn out to be true, it is because of misinformation spread by our foreign enemies.
I was not aware you should not post here anything less literal than x86 assembly, now I know.
It was pretty obvious to me haha and a great comment. The WSJ is a fantastic organization imho, at least as good as any media organization can realistically aspire to be
They might not have the same motivation to write clickbait articles, but state-sponsored news certainly has plenty of motivation to distort the facts as well. We've seen what the current US administration thinks of the truth...
