This is indicative of the fact that the Western media narrative is being consistently coordinated on all key issues, something that should have been obvious to everyone for a long time. One of the ways in which this is happening is through the unprofessional reporting of journalists, who more often than not simply copy and paste the news releases and footage from the three major Western news agencies. This is not indicative of the veracity or falsehood of the information disseminated, but of the low level of reliability of these media.
Couldn't agree more. Strange that people don't realise that the media do not control the reality and all they need is to look for alternative sources, more direct and closer to the ground. Disappointing.

I'll call out journalistic nonsense any time, but I do not see that here. I've been in lots of photo selection conversations, and when there is a single topic that visually best describes the scene, it will get selected a LOT. Pics evoke reactions, and the photos that are the most powerful – a bloodied, bandaged woman in front of a bombed building – stand out and get selected.
Thanks for the inside view, the problem is that sometimes the most striking photos are fake or staged, as has already happened several times in the past.
Pics have watermarks but you can do searches and see all of the images that have been uploaded, sorting by newest, etc. I learned SO MUCH about the Canadian Trucker Convoy by doing this. Scores of brilliant photos that told stories, and I never saw those pics published anywhere. Maybe I was not looking at the right sites, but found them fascinating.
What is a puzzlement to me is why my BLM sign waving friends are far more concerned about photos showing a "bloodied bandage woman in front of a bombed building) in the Ukraine more then they are about pictures of children starving in Afganistan or bloodied bandage WOMEN in Yeman living under constant bombardments.
I mention BLM only because i am left to wonder if their concern for the white English speaking Ukranians (a concern I share by the way) instead of similar concern for the dark skinned folks in Yemen an Afganistan isn't something that could be called"racism". Everything else is.
Interesting. Certainly there has long been a complaint/observation that a missing white kid from the suburbs gets all the attention that a missing black kid from the city does not. Where is the delineation between interest and not?
Good luck establishing a functional definition that separates propaganda from journalism or information.
Closest you can get is ignore the appeals to emotion and look for hard facts. Who, what, when, why, where, and so on.
And most important - what's been left out? How do you know what was left out? Who did the choosing and the editing for you?
All news, or rather all information that tries to garner an emotional response and influence course of action should be approached as if you're byuing something very expensive.
I make no call either way about this image, since I don't know.
It used to be my job to teach that kind of stuff. How to test information. How to look for more. Where to find archives and how to speed read and use microfiche and microfilm. That kind of stuff. Then we got the net, and all of sudden it's like most everyone got stupid.
Looking up stuff in an archive or at a library or a cutting agency took time, you had to physically be there. Ain't no wonder John Q Public didn't do that for every suspicious news item after working full time coming home and just wanting a cold beer and a hot meal - no blame on the working man and woman of that time.
But after the net and after surveillance phones? What's the excuse for not looking? Everyone can go fish. More information than at any point in time is available.
I sometimes think the 'stupidification' of the media and the politicisation making everything a partisan issue is a measured response from people in power: keep the plebs enraged and partisan and they'll happily argue who killed cock Robin, instead of maing sur the killer doesn't get away with the loot, if I make sense?
All week I've had people ask me my thoughts on what's happening in the Ukraine. I told them "honestly? I don't know what to think? I feel bad for the civilians,but who knows if any or what parts are true? In Syria our government (U.S.) told us all how Syrian president Assad was gassing his own people with sarin. It was largely the reason we had to go to war or so we were told. Later to find out the photos used were staged. Besides what makes Biden any different than Putin? They're both stealing countries.Right now? We have to fix what happened in the 2020 election and all those who have been part of it along with those who have planned and executed the scamdemic ALL need to be on trial. The fact is, until justice is served I don't care about the Biden pay for play Ukraine. The Ukraine government has a long history of money laundering, adult child sex trafficking. ". Fast forward to this morning. I open my substack email and my thought stream is in black and white - smoke and mirrors. Who would go to war for leaders (cough,cough) that are a bunch of liars? Not I. The same could probably be said for Australia, New Zealand, Canada and so many others. You question whether or not these leaders care about you? Need I remind you Joe Biden checked his watch no fewer than twelve times as bodies of U.S, soldiers, the US flag ceremonially draped upon each coffin, were being unloaded from the transport plane. It was the number one complaint from families of the fallen. So until we "really" know! How's that trucker convoy doing? Because that's where my thoughts are. Another observant article. Thank you! The Emperor really is naked. Only this time, the people notice
Ugh, so this is the first I’m hearing about fake gas reports in Syria. Would you mind sharing some links, if you can. And I don’t even follow MSM at all - only non-MSM. And many of them reported this as true.
God, give us wisdom because it sure is hard to find reliable information ourselves.
Some of the best coverage is from Max Blumenthal's site "thegrayzone.com" where they've covered the OPCW and other angles of the Syrian "gas narrative".
Sure. I'll provide a couple, but suggest you do a search in duckduckgo just to make sure you're getting the correct article. Sometimes you have to weed through, as I'm sure you understand.
So here's what I just read in a headline-"Stunning Discovery: Evidence Suggest U.S. I tell Baited Russia in December by Telling China the Ukraine was Coming Into NATO (New York times yesterday). This is why I no longer trust our government. So why did Biden state department tell China this? Many claimed incompetence, but I believe it was done with the intent that China would tell Russia and Russia would attack the Ukraine. It certainly makes sense considering the way the Biden regime fanned the flames of this war. I believe it was wanted. Obama started it when he backed what was then being called a coup in 2014. Certainly Obama, killer Clinton and the Biden family syndicate all benefited. I do feel for the people. Just as we have a corrupt government as they do, but we still want better for our homeland.
For starters, out of those thousands "gassed" - not one single body was ever exhumed and forensically examined as evidence and presented as a proof. Zero. Second, funny how the attacks were perfectly timed every time Trump made a noise that US has no business in Syria and wants to pull out. Third, it is absurd that gas - a very unreliable weapon - would be used in situation when government forces were winning (Daraa), but on the other side, for the jihadis (I think it was "Army of Islam") staging or doing an attack was the last chance to bring in NATO intervention to save them. Even with 5 min logical scrutiny the story is absurd. Similar to "Iraqis throwing babies from incubators", or "Ghadaffy distributing viagra", or going back in time "Kaiser's troops marching through Belgium with babies on bayonets"...
I have had many many young AMERICAN PEOPLE say they refuse to fight for th US. I really cant blame them.
I was talking to an old man in line at the bank. Fought in Korea. He said he wished he had died during the first years of Trump as now he knows his family, kids, grandkids will have a terrible life.
You can never put “aside”fake propaganda and it is interesting to note how many people have called this staged picture out as fake and provided links and pictures to this woman’s previous acting work. How far we have come in our discernment 🤔👍🏻
Perversely another thing to thank the pandemic for
Are you implying that it would not have been possible for the media to find heartbreaking footage of very old or very young Ukrainians injured or killed by Putin's war?
My question was rhetorical. If there were any footage of Russian liberators greeted with flowers & candy the Russian media would broadcast it over and over again.
this picture shows the motherland attacked (i.e., the Ukraine). the older lady wounded. this is a total appeal to emotion, by the media. the use of a lady rather than a child might mean something, but it's 9.30am and my brain isn't in gear 5 yet
It will sound cynical, I know, but it's perfeclty alligined with the new western philosophy: old people are more important than children. Who do you think the next fake pandemic will hit hard? The children will be spared as they are the target of indoctrination so there's no need to kill them through injections. They are to be trained to become the epsilons and deltas in the future psychopathic utopia.
Would really like to find definitive evidence of the source and/or date of first publication of these photographs. Could do some damage to the UK MSM in the wrong hands (mine). Wouldn’t want that.
1st photo there, well... they're at least better equipped than German Bundeswehr, who sometimes apparently practises with broomsticks. That's just not as immersive.
I was told that the CNN pictures there were apparently from a fake CNN account that got removed already (at least the Afghanistan one)
Edit: The CNNukraine one is also gone. Apparently troll channels. Not that this sort of work would have been uncharacteristic, but, beware - traps everywhere.
There is a lot of misinformation and propaganda out there and it’s very interesting when the established media finds it appropriate to show us that people actually get hurt in wars.
It's the same old tired media manipulation emotional ploy playbook. Recall the "Syria boy" photo that was plastered all over the Western news coverage for days.... Same intent: Russia bad aggressor, Putin evil henchman....
And there we are - hotly discussing the war while the mRNA from the jabs embedded in the DNA of billions of jabbed around the globe (https://www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73/htm). Is it better to die from a bullet or the BigPharma gifts that "never-ever no can do affect your DNA"?
Depopulation on all fronts, faster than anyone expected. What do we do about at least the latter? Who will have to be held responsible? CDC? NIH? Moderna? Pfizer-Biontech? WHO? BMGF? Whom have I missed? Billions of mutant Ninja turtles among us!
This is a controversial paper, that's why I haven't reported on it yet. A lot of people who are not in favour of mRNA vaccines are saying this isn't a great paper.
This one just measures the effects. I think it's cool. Should have been done before this warp speed warping. Instead of fighting ivermectin, vitamin D and hydroxychloroquine. But again, it's not about the public health, as we understand...
Thousands of Javelins, thousands of NLAWs were sent to us by allies, and all the same, our thrifty people make Molotov cocktails. I adore you my Ukrainians. The first day of the war shock, stress, fear for relatives and friends, and now full 100% confidence in our victory over Putinism. I remember how our nation united on the second "Maidan", I remember what a monolith we became in 2014, I remember how in the Kiev metro a woman in front of me hugged an unfamiliar soldier in the uniform of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and cried on his shoulder trying to put 200 hryvnias into his pocket. When the volunteer battalions covered our Ukraine with their bodies. When the whole country on its knees met our first fallen heroes.
“The biggest mistake is to neglect the Ukrainians. Consider Ukrainians weak. Offend the Ukrainians. Never offend Ukrainians. Ukrainians are never as weak as you think. Almighty Allah forbid expel Ukrainians or take something away from Ukrainians. Ukrainians always come back. The Ukrainians will return and return what is theirs. But when the Ukrainians return, they do not know how to calculate the force and apply it proportionally. They destroy everything in their path. Do not offend the Ukrainians. Otherwise, when Ukrainians return to the land where their ancestors are buried, those living on this land will envy the dead.”
The rag around her head looks really effective. Also, nice dramatic posing on the last one. Apparently, the other papers didn't appreciate it as much as I do.
When the narrative is controlled and the media is owned basically by six sources, this is what you get. The sheep are baaing in unison. Linking today @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/
This is indicative of the fact that the Western media narrative is being consistently coordinated on all key issues, something that should have been obvious to everyone for a long time.

This is not indicative of the veracity or falsehood of the information disseminated, but of the low level of reliability of these media.
Couldn't agree more. Strange that people don't realise that the media do not control the reality and all they need is to look for alternative sources, more direct and closer to the ground. Disappointing.
When I see obvious coordination like that I'm instantly suspicious.
The coordination between Western media being routine, this is not indicative of the veracity or falsehood of the information disseminated, but of the low level of reliability of these media.
You have to highly suspect it though. Really, better to ignore it and look for other sources. I could probably get a chimp to copy and paste
Truth does not have to be coordinated. Lies do.
For this to work on this scale, the coordination mechanisms must be up and running, for both truth and lies.
Brilliant comment.
Bingo. It's controlled, it's planned ((sometimes for a long time). And it not good
