  • I think I know all of these apart from the Arabic one (which is hard for me to look up since I don’t know Arabic)

    (Top, “made up nonsense”)

    • CGTN is China Global Television Network and is an international outlet ran by the Chinese government
    • Telesur seems slightly more complicated than the rest, in that it’s owned in part by 3 different Latin American governments (Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba), though it’s headquartered in Venezuela. I actually often watch/listen to Telesur because it streams 24/7 on Youtube and I’ve been trying to teach myself Spanish (obviously it’s also available in English). It’s very anti-US.
    • RT is Russia Today and is probably the most hated news channel in the west, since it’s ran by Russia. A lot of major online platforms have banned or censored it for “misinformation”

    (Bottom, “so true”)

    • NPR is (US) National Public Radio, funded partly by the US government but also by some limited advertising. NPR seems to have the best reputation among US liberals out of all these stations
    • VoA (Voice of America) and RFA (Radio Free Asia) can kinda be lumped together. They were both made and ran by the US gov to broadcast pro-US/anti-communist propaganda internationally, and have never really deviated from that. I don’t know how many people unironically take them seriously, considering there are other outlets with similar perspectives that aren’t such blatant propaganda
    • BBC (British Broadcasting Company) News is the UK government state news… a lot of genocide denial from them recently

    I spent longer than I thought I would typing this, but I hope somebody cares and tells me what the Arabic one is (or just corrects/adds anything else I missed out or got wrong)… Hope it was interesting/helpful though.




  • This is just the same kind of libertarian talking points again. Good job that you don’t personally like or use Twitter or Facebook, but big tech is always gonna act in the interest of capitalists and try to create monopolies that control information (at least in The West©).

    Not sure what sources of information you like, but I guarantee you they’re either very obscure, discredited by propaganda or have similar problems to the social media you hate so much. Social media itself also affects what ordinary people can share and what they can communicate with others around the world.

    All you’re really doing is responding to the guy yankin’ your chain by repeating yourself and saying I misrepresent you when I troll you.
