The media has lost all credibility. It is naked propaganda.

Rule 10 Submission Statement: A month ago, Donald Trump posted to Truth Social that Iran had no more air defense. Yesterday, he confirmed, via Truth Social, that a United States Army AH-64 Apache Attack Helicopter had been shot down by Iran while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz. That's a bit ironic, but not the point of this post.

The point is that western media is just blatant propaganda. As soon as the incident was reported, nearly every media outlet rushed to report that the AH-64 had "crashed" and that the crew was completely fine. It wasn't until later that they admitted, what the United States military would have known immediately, that it had in fact been brought down by hostile fire.

The media and the White House press office would have kept the lie alive that the helicopter had crashed, if Donald Trump had not posted about it being shot down on social media.

It's the same situation in Iran as it is in Ukraine. When a Russian aircraft goes down, it was shot down by Ukraine. When a Ukrainian aircraft goes down, it merely crashed. When an Iranian aircraft goes down, it was shot down by the United States or Israel. When a United States aircraft goes down, it merely crashed. Y'all see how that works?

The propaganda is so thin that everyone should be able to see straight through it, by now, at least.
