As most of you know, I am from Palestine, and something I’ve been noticing recently is the coverage that a lot of brainless goofs are getting.

On the internet especially, but people shouldn’t pretend the internet is not part of our lives.

The main three people I am referring to here are Tucker Carlson, Prof Jiang, and John Kiriakou.

The least brainless here is the guy that worked for the CIA.

Who do you think is behind the coverage and visibility they are getting?

My parents have heard about those three and have seen videos.

That is interesting.

But Sputnik News had some Russian ties and funding iirc

Is Sputnik News not explicitly Russian state media?

It’s Russian state media in the same way that NPR is American state media. They get money but have editorial independence.

How truly independent you think that is is up to you. I’d argue that The New York Times is more “state media” than NPR or Sputnik.

It is state owned according to Natopedia
