we are going to have to accept that the american press is going to be completely useless as a source on this topic.

They got rid of all the real journalists and replaced them with cheap activists years ago and now their pretty much fucking useless.

Ukrainian fake news covers for panicked infighting among armed civillians by conjuring up “russia’s attacks” in Kiev.



(EDIT)

Ex-CIA guy posts delusions.

Gotta love idiots that just pull stock photos b/c they're either just lying, crooked, lazy and/or cheap to get authentic photos.

Also, it's this kind of shit that has one of my coworkers believing the entire invasion of Ukraine is a Big Lie being used by the globalists....for some reason.

look it isn't that I think russia isn't invading Ukraine. I am even sure it is a big deal. but my brain just keeps getting stuck that somehow the US Intel community was almost right. they said it would be a bit earlier based on predictions. but seriously when was the last time they actually got something right?

We think they pushed the date back everytime we said anything.
They did put forces into Donbass on the 22.
But yeah.. we were right

anybody with more than two brain cells could see that Russia massing troops on the border meant an invasion was coming.

I'm laughing at all the people here who said it wasn't going to happen.

But this is like the US intelligence community saying the grass is green. It didn't take any kind of intelligence to make this prediction.

Then again at this point if an IC member told me the grass was green, I'd go check to make sure it's not brown.

Or see if it had a coat of paint on it.

These are the people that claim Andy and O'keefe are "fake news"

Is there a topic it isn’t useless on?

They cry, and they refuse to correct it and keep spreading the lie. Looking forward to seeing the Proud Boys Kyiv Chapter be added to the stock of leftist insults.

If I wasn't already aware that Fox News is just as much fake news as the rest of the mainstream news media, thanks to their coverage (or lack thereof) of the 2020 election fraud, I'd feel more disappointed in them right now. As things stands, Tucker seems to be the only one there not regurgitating propaganda 24/7.

 

[Sobek]

Tucker should just start his own show. Away from Fox.

When he eventually goes so off script that the ratings don't justify it and they can him, he probably will. It would probably be massively successful. Megyn Kelly does one that's pretty decent.

Heck a number of Fox people have gone on to raging independent success.

 

[Bigking321]

Ugh. Fox really went downhill after the original owner retired and left it to his never Trumper sons.
