Paramount CEO David Ellison is a billionaire who supports Donald Trump. When David Ellison gained control of CBS, CBS started slanting its news broadcasts in a pro-Trump way. Now there is a threat of David Ellison perverting news on CNN in the same way. This is why "Paramount’s proposed deal with Warner Bros. reveals that the merger is in a shaky position" is a very good thing for people who want news we can trust: https://prospect.org/2026/07/22/why-paramount-should-be-worried-warner-bros-merger-ellison/ #MediaBias #antitrust copy: @renewedresistance@channel.org #politics

The US Apache helicopter was in Iranian airspace when it was hit. Has this simple fact been mentioned in any of the mainstream western media reporting on this latest round of escalation? Perhaps, but I haven't seen it. A few days ago, Israel did not respond to Iranian aggression with a counter strike (as most mainstream media sources framed it). Iran was responding to Israel's ongoing aggression in southern Lebanon over the last few months, where the Israeli military has been bulldozing dozens of villages, killing well over 3,000 people (predominantly civilians), wounding more than ten thousand people, targeting (once more) medical facilities and first responders, displacing over 20% of the population, while announcing plans to make their occupation permanent. And Iran was responding specifically to Israel once more bombing a densely-populated part of Beirut. For decades, western media have consistently misrepresented the aggressors (US-Israel) as the victims. Whenever one of the targets of their illegal expansionist/imperialist violence retaliates, this response/defence is treated as the originating act of aggression and (retrospective) _casus belli_. History didn't start yesterday. #MediaBias #USImperialism #Iran #IranWar #Israel #InternationalLaw #framing #Disinformation

On the BBC website neither the main page nor even the UK news page report the anti far right Together march that took place in London today. You have to filter all the way to England. Mind you, that’s better than they did for Trans Pride which only showed on the London page. A bit of a difference from how they covered the far right’s marches last year? #bbc #bbcnews #FarRight #mediabias #london #ukpolitics
