Related, Jonathan Fink (Silicon Curtain - Silicon Wafers) talked about this issue some days ago but focused on his own experience on X https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL1_ow8s0rY

I know unlikely to be a popular opinion but is it likely everything Russia says is propaganda and everything Ukraine says is truthful? Is it not far more likely that it is a grey area in the middle?

The US literally exposed RT employees as FSB agents that carried out hacking operations... what do you think?

And that doesn't happen the other way around?

Can't read the article because it's asking for a subscription.

How does Wire know Chatbots are pushing propaganda, and that it isn't the other way around where its Wire that pushes the propaganda?

Thanks for the link.

I didn't see Wire link to the actual ISD report or peer-reviewed paper, instead of say what the report found without showing me the report so I can read it myself. It's a red flag in my book.

That's not a red flag, almost all news sites are like that now, unfortunately. It's due to the ad revenue model, they don't want you to click away. Pick some reputable news sources you can think of and see if they link their primary sources - it won't be many.

I ignore almost all news sites now, fortunately, and built my own that links to its primary sources. A different revenue model makes this possible.
