  • The news site is reposting an Article written by Agence France Presse which the French government owns 20% of. (And majorly subsidised). The French government like most western governments is pro-Israel biased. So I’m not too suprised by the slanted reporting.

    (Yes of course the AFP claims “editorial independence”, but is any news site “independent” when the funder has the power to cut the money if it says something the funder doesn’t like).

  • I think in the US (and english speaking parts of Canada) they have a weird conception that “North America” doesn’t include “Central America”.

    But the rest of the world seems to agree that: North America = Central America + US, Canada, Mexico

    and South America = Anything south of Panama on the American continent

  • While I sort of agree. I’m just gonna say, you ain’t gonna find anything mainstream western media that doesn’t have major ties to unethical corpos unless you basically force yourself to only use AP and the Guardian (and even then, pretty sure they still have dodgy ties, just it’s not as visible since no direct “ownership”.)
