The claim that every news outlet engages in a campaign of lies and distortion is specious. Omission does most of the legwork. We get around the omissions by aggregating here.

Nah the only media literate™ way to consume news is ask a bias meter page which source to uncritically believe and then never do more than a second of thinking about the facts they're presenting or the sources they cite.

That's what the journos are for, I just need to know what I believe.

I need all of my Washington Post articles pre-chewed by a circle of CIA talk show hosts on channels titled things like Negotiation Minds and Useful Idiots (oh wait isn't that just Katie Halper correctly labeling herself, that exists)

I think the Ukrainian high command should accept the dead bodies they've been refusing from Moscow and this whole thing isn't worth having childish bickering matches over

Sputnik is frequently described by academics and journalists as a Russian propaganda outlet.

Ok? So is every outlet that isn't funded by USAID, NED, or a US oligarch.

I already post Sputnik articles, Cello, you don't need to encourage me.
