Western media is mostly propaganda. Facts are just something they use in order to lie. What really amazes me is how people recognize that local media is often lying about internal affairs, but blindly belive anything the same people say when its about other countries

Western media normally doesn't lie directly but lies by omission. They will only show one side as a victim and never show that side committing any crimes nor tell the full story.

Israel is the prime example that commits Genocide for 20 years but only gets attention and portrayed as the victim when Hamas retaliates. Seemingly "out of nowhere".

Though in the last few months we went from lying by omission to full on CCP style propaganda with no Genocide in Ba Sing Se.
