It's not arbitrary, I wouldn't trust Western run state owned media either. If it's state owned, it cannot be trusted.

Look at who's running Voice of America these days, you trust them? Oh, fuck no.

But has nothing to do with it being "Western" it has to do with it being a mouthpiece for the current ruling party.

You trust the news you get from Putin? LOL. Or from Ali Khamenei? Erdoğan? Because if you do, you're being lied to and in your desperate attempt to avoid "Western" media, you will never know it.

Lol, that Wikipedia article you linked uses state owned media as a source. Guess you are willing to trust state media so long as it's laundered through a nice, western friendly proxy

I'm waiting for you to post a reliable source.

Seriously, CNN? Are you not even going to try to hide what a wretched hypocrite you are?

LOL every source is disreputable with a chronic condition of cranial sphincter incursion. Globally recognized sources are globally recognized sources.

"But I don't like them!!!"

Sounds like a "you" problem.

Talk like a fucking human.

Globally recognized sources are globally recognized sources.

AKA, sources you agree with. And another reminder that people like you only consider white westerners to be human.

Sounds like a “you” problem.

Not my problem that you can't hide the fact that you're the most obviously bad faith hypocrite alive who has clearly been brought in to enforce ideological conformity on .world.

It’s not arbitrary, I wouldn’t trust Western run state owned media either. If it’s state owned, it cannot be trusted.

So BBC, ABC, CBC are all propaganda outlets that you reject and can't be trusted?

What about privately owned propaganda outlets? You've been happy to slurp those down so long as they agree with you.
