Well, all of them actually.
Same goes for the likes of blacklistednews/Moon of Alabama and all the other "independent" sites where paranoid conspiracy theorists go to look for "the truth".
"confirmation bias
noun
the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of one's existing beliefs or theories."
Once again ........ it’s all about me ............ what this has to remotely do with Chernobyl has missed me completely. But anyway ......... it does demonstrate why you are so poorly informed. Your paranoia replaces the need to understand that there are two sides to every story!
The first link is to an article on Putin’s annual address to the Russian Assembly, the Russian equivalent of Trumps State of the Union Address ..... but this one is given by a Statesman. I am sure you prefer Trumps presentation ... as he tells what you want to hear.
Of course you would not have seen it or read the transcript (
it was live with an English translation, on RT) ..... as it is about Russia and the MSM tells you all you need to form your opinions about Russia. You accept without question that which suits you from sources you consider impeccably reliable when it comes to telling you the truth ........ you don’t need it from the horse’s mouth. Your sources give you an unbiased view and tell you all you want to know!
The second link .............. is an article based on a paper by RAND, if you didn’t see it in the Telegraph (
behind a pay-wall) it’s because the RAND findings do not match the MSM propaganda that you place so much reliance on. Take careful note of who funds them and who they do research work for!
WIKI:
“
RAND ("Research ANd Development")[8] is an American nonprofit global policy think tank[1] created in 1948 by Douglas Aircraft Company to offer research and analysis to the United States Armed Forces. It is financed by the U.S. government and private endowment,[6] corporations,[9] universities[9] and private individuals.[9] The company has grown to assist other governments, international organizations, private companies and foundations, with a host of defense and non-defense issues, including healthcare.” ......... so in my perception it is hardly a Russian shill then?
But apparently you regard them as staunchly pro Russian/anti-US and according to your standards .... unreliable conspiracy theorists?
I doubt you read either link. You make yourself look rather foolish, it’s a habit with you. Before ridiculing my sources, try to understand how ‘
independent news outlets’ work and the difference between a News Platform and a Blog. Normally News Platforms have no editorial policy, they rarely write articles of their own and are simply a platform for thousands of journalists to tell you what the MSM don't. Journalist who are often prevented from telling the full story by their editors/owners if they want to keep their jobs. It is the equivalent of a Harvey Weinstein scenario ..... they allow themselves to get f****d if they want to keep their jobs! The truth only comes out later when they have built a name, then they use independent news platforms or blogs. A blog is by a single author who will specialise in a limited sphere of subjects and invite feedback.
Lack of a balanced view is your loss, you remain in a world of brainwashed ignorance.
Maybe you should heed your own advice or does that only apply to others? :
"
confirmation bias – noun: ..... the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of one's existing beliefs or theories." Like your existing beliefs ....... Russia/China/Nth.Korea/Iran/Syria etc =
ALL BAD ....... but US/NATO/Israel/Koala’s =
ALL GOOD!
