Is Ukraine the 51st state now?
Who is a trusted source, in your opinion?
Anderson Cooper and Rachel Maddow, he believes no one else.
Thats how it looks, but Iâm genuinely interested in discovering reliable sources âŚhopefully sid can help
BBC
Channel 4 and ITN
Sky News
The Guardian
Deutsche Welle
Publicly funded broadcasters in Europe
Papers of record throughout Europe, the US and elsewhere, ie not the fruitcakes you read
The major US networks outside of Fox opinion
Ukraine World is an excellent podcast
The Kyiv Independent and Post
Novaya Gazeta
Russian propagandists are not trustworthy sources.
Thanks. Iâll ignore the above, for obvious reasons. But ill check out the rest. What does Rachel etc say about the strategic importance of bakmut and the current state of the battle for control of the city?
The obvious reasons being they might tell the truth.
They might if it suits. But they lied all through the pandemic and they take the public for useful idiots , as youâre well aware.
I think you maybe fancy yourself as a bellingcat asset or something
Bellingcat is excellent so thank you.
It would definitely be a hell of a lot better than fancying yourself as a Graham Phillips asset.

Thatâs not a news report, itâs opinion article from nine years ago by John Pilger, who is these days an absolute disgraced joke.
âŚand who was proven right
Sure you saying that Pilger was proven right is like Gemma OâDoherty claiming she was proven right. Pilger isnât much above that now.
How so? Do explain your reasoning.
It must be tricky, one source for news and another source for opinions- is that how it works? At least you know where you stand with the lads at bellingcat- government funded propaganda
Just to inform you, because itâs clear you didnât know - newspapers generally have a news section and an opinion section. The opinion section is different from the news section in that it carries opinion, not news, and generally it will be impossible for one person to agree with all of the opinions contained in the opinion section, because by nature, opinion sections tend to contain writers of different opinions.
Pilger hasnât written in The Guardian for a long time, because it became steadily apparent his opinions were steadily going way off reservation into the realms of fantasy.
You live in a fantasy world, so you seek out fantasy that will reaffirm your fantasies.

Maybe theyâll take him back now that his âopinionâ has turned out to be factual?
