When the dust settles, will the West’s media coverage get a passing grade, or will we find, at times, we allowed our sympathy for the Ukrainian cause to overlook matters we shouldn’t?

    Lol. Just lol.

    But there was insufficient media skepticism overall, and alternative voices and awkward questions were all too often crowded out.

    Hm. Yeah, “crowded out” (aka blacklisted and smeared) by who? Oh yeah by the very same publications that you are currently writing for. That continue to do this even as you write this article.

    This is really rich. You’ve only now just noticed you’ve been cheerleading another war based on lies and helping to spread falsehoods and propaganda while demonizing anyone who says differently?

    I find articles like this really, truly shameless. They are honestly worse than the ones where they just lie all the time. At least with those there is no pretense. But to pretend like now all of a sudden they care about the truth? Sorry, i’m not buying it. It’s too little too late.
