    I always heard Reuters is very reputable. Can you share some evidence that shows why you think it isn’t?

        Is there a newer version of this chart? It’s dated from 2018, and things have certainly changed since then.

          Yea haha. That is an out of date chart. They have an interactive one (posted in another comment). Though I didn’t check where Infowars falls now.

        You’re just posting the Propaganda Multiplier but it’s the propaganda version of it. These newspapers get their talking points from the US government and will publish whatever they are asked to. This is especially noticeable whenever the US invades a country and lies to manufacture consent for the invasion.

          You’re posting a picture of Swiss Propaganda Research, an anonymous group that spreads conspiracy theories while accusing Swiss media of “one-sided and uncritical” reporting. This falls squarely into what we in Switzerland call Schwurbler territory: people who peddle wild claims like Bill Gates implanting 5G chips through COVID vaccines or “mainstream science” secretly working to enslave humanity. The figure presumably behind SPR, Daniele Ganser, styles himself as a “peace researcher” (a self-invented title with no academic foundation). He was fired from ETH Zurich, where he served as a Senior Researcher, for promoting 9/11 conspiracy myths, and his subsequent teaching positions, including at the University of St. Gallen, were terminated after his theories were deemed damaging to institutional reputation.

            It doesn’t matter who made it. What matter is that it’s correct. All international media copy pastes anything these propaganda outlets say without double checking it.

            If you want a more blatant example of Reuters lying, during the Maccabi riots in Amsterdam they said that a video of Maccabi supporters attacking a Moroccan was the inverse to push the narrative that there was a Pogrom against Jews

            Reuters and other propaganda outlets were notified of this by the person who made the video but they refused to correct it for multiple days because they had to keep the narrative going.

              I will not engage further in this convo. you’re simplifying things. nobody claims that media never is without a doubt biasfree. but stating that all is propaganda fed by the pentagon is a false claim and spreading such nonsense is dangerous for every democracy. tschüss.

                When presented with absolute evidence debunking your BS you just tap out. Of course I’m talking to a German

        Your server is banning people for celebrating the death of Lindsey Graham it’s kind of incredible you’re claiming people are insane to not be on it.

      They’re pretty reputable but their writers use incredibly loaded language pretty often, sanewashing Trump and republicans while doing the opposite with dems to fuel the both sides discourse. More objective in average than the average but the agenda is still clear.
