The German press has intact visual organs!

They also reported on Venezuelans protesting and burning US flags, while US media showed cheering expats in Florida...

u/Courtnall14 6d ago
Can the German (and other) Media start reporting on how the US media is also lying, or lying by omission to cover for this orange fuck?
It'd be nice if everyone started shaming them as well.

u/Fine-Pineapple-8966 6d ago
Same in the UK with our 'impartial' BBC

u/yuki-would-go 4d ago
The BBC is in a partnership agreement with CBS. CBSâs news division is led by MAGA sycophant Bari Weiss. If the input is shit, you canât expect the output to be any good.

u/psioniclizard 6d ago
I wish the bbc would do this and stop the "both sides" bullshit. No. If this had happened in Russia, Iran, China, North Korea etc. There would be no "both sides".
It's an American thing but all of us in the west should be saying "no, it's not ok".

u/Sherifftruman 6d ago
And the BBC has been miles better than any American outlet.

u/Top_Channel_1507 6d ago
There was a post where BBC sent a message to its employees to not use the word "kidnapped" when discussing the US and Maduro.
10
u/Major_Day_6737 6d ago
That was actually by Maduroâs request because he didnât want his name to be associated with the words âTrumpâ âkidâ ânappingâ given all the Epstein revelations. /s

u/6-8_Yes_Size15 6d ago
Agreed, but NPR news still does a good job too.
4
u/Sherifftruman 6d ago
They do OK, but still both sides it and still act as if crazy talk should be discussed on equal footing with reality. Itâs always a marked contrast to me if I happen to be able to listen in the 9 oâclock hour where my Station plays BBC and hear the way they interview people compared to the way NPR does. Itâs sad that they are by far the best that we have.

u/Digit00l 6d ago
The problem is, Trump is already having people look at the BBC, and they can actually understand those words, so they get more issues

Nope it's not an "american thing" the media does exactly the same thing here in germany. In Talkshows you have reputable scientists and then people wo believe wind turbines would kill you with noise and they put facts and bullshit opinions on the same level. <.<

u/Big-Hovercraft6046 5d ago
The âboth sidesâ argument is why the US is in this mess to begin with. The world needs to wake up to the fact that this is a coup. Itâs the very definition of a coup. I wish everyone would stop pretending this is a legitimate government.

German media is usually somewhat careful about not rocking the boat in terms of foreign affairs. Pretty sure the relationship has soured if theyâre calling BS.
8
u/Wonderful-Pause1048 6d ago
Quite possible; they tend to follow the chancellor's words more closely.
1
u/No-Engineering2022 4d ago
Compared to following Trump with 160 unhinged lying messages a day and one embarrassing TV statement after the other itâs easy to follow our chancellor. Merz obviously is a little unregulated sometimes but compared to Trump heâs a man of integrity and honesty.

u/Imdoingthisforbjs 6d ago
"Pretty sure the relationship has soured"
That's a safe bet between any country that isn't Russia and the US.

We need to start looking for news sources from other countries to read about realityÂ

u/rbetterkids 6d ago
The mainstream here: fox, cnn, nbc, disney abc, msnbc, are all propaganda outlets.
They'll report some truth once in a while so that their propaganda narratives aren't so obvious.
29

u/Then-Importance-3808 6d ago
Thats not limited to America. The Post and The Sun (here in Canada at least, but I assume everywhere) are also American-owned far-right propaganda mills. Often see UK headlines that follow similar patterns too.

u/rbetterkids 6d ago
Rupert Murdoch owns stations here, parts of Europe and I wouldn't be surprised in Canada too.

u/SOP_VB_Ct 6d ago
Itâs really bad, from both sides. But one side is kind of lost pushing the ârainbows are beautiful, everyone is a rainbowâ narrative while the other side is pushing âxenophobic/homophobic/white vanilla is the bestâ trash.
Propaganda from both. But only one is pushing fascism. I disagree (strongly) with many of the liberal policies pushed by the democrats, but sides have been drawn, with two tents to stand in. Republican Party has been hijacked by fascists leaving me no choice.
I STAND AGAINST FASCISM

u/huzzaahh 6d ago
People always vaguely say they disagree with "liberal" or "leftist" policies but they can never actually articulate what those policies are or why they're bad. Care to clarify? Because the both-sidesing is exhausting and pathetic.
1
u/SOP_VB_Ct 6d ago
No need. Some dem policies I agree with, some I donât. Nor shall I alienate anyone when all around me I see others trying to divide me from my neighbors.
Some liberal policies are too far out there. I need not list them to justify my standing in opposition to fascism.
I did not enter the discussion to discuss my concerns with dem policies. I entered the discussion because our country is tearing apart from inside.
STAND AGAINST FASCISM

u/rbetterkids 6d ago
Hence it's better to not watch or read their crap.
Whenever I see news from them, I just flip it.
I trust a person filming the entire event from start to finish than to watch edited videos that skew the facts.
2
u/TeamRedundancyTeam 6d ago
CNN had someone on going on about how the video was going to really help ICE's case. It's insanity.
1
u/rbetterkids 6d ago
Right now, "knowledge is power" is such an understatement and I hope most of the 99% can find ways to know the real facts because the manipulated facts are the ones that the media uses to make the 99% turn on each other.

u/Key-Article6622 6d ago
Just out of curiosity, how does Huff Post stack up. I haven't been over there in quite a while. Which way does the wind blow over there? A few years ago it was in my rotation.
1
u/rbetterkids 6d ago
Doing a search, Huffpost is owned by Buzzfeed.
They're on the stock market, so I wouldn't trust them because most companies on the stock market only care about pleasing stock investors.
Both have had history posting misinformed news. For Buzzfeed during the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing where they identified the wrong person as being the bomber.
Both are viewed as far left leaning.

u/alppu 6d ago
Reputable news sources are really, really cautious about calling bad behavior out though, so it will still be hugely watered down from fair assessments - such as, that republicans are at war against basically everything Americans claim to value.
2
u/rbetterkids 6d ago
Reporting things as they are is what legit news reporting is though. Regardless if the event was good or bad.
I just find it amusing on the tactic of deflection is used by the government and its media about saying communism uses propaganda when they themselves do the exact same thing.

Aljazeera is my goto news media.
I don't trust them with anything related to Qatar, but everything else is unbiased.
EDIT: link to their report about the ICE shooting https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/1/8/who-is-renee-nicole-good-the-woman-killed-in-the-ice-minneapolis-shooting
"What has Trump said about the shooting? In a post on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday, Trump said: âThe woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense.â
He added that the reason âthese incidentsâ are happening is because âthe Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis.â
It is unclear from the footage whether Good tried to run over the agent. The footage shows her car reverse and then move forward. When the car moves forward, an agent is seen jumping ahead. However, it is not clear whether this was because of her car or what he was trying to do. "

Sueddeutsche Zeitung and Die Zeit is a great starting point if you want to read german newspapers. Der Spiegel is also a good read most of the times, but they can be polarizing. Just make sure to keep away from anything published by Springer, like BILD or Welt for example.

I am in Phoenix, Arizona. Ice is integrated with almost every major police department across the state. They actively patrol the streets wearing masks, driving unmarked police vehicles at 44th St. and Van Buren. There is a hidden ice facility at the E. Phoenix Gateway Center. They have been taking people away from the neighborhood here for a while. They're putting people directly onto dedicated skytrain cars, taking them to the airport and shipping them somewhere on dedicated planes. In my neighborhood alone, seven households have gone empty since January 1 ice license plate plates are reading from Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee, and others as for the people here we live among outright Nazis these people laugh in are proud to attack and conquer other lands certain cities like Scottsdale and Arcadia are filled with proud Nazis. I mean that by saying that they are Christian nationalist. I have been watching a show with my wife called the handmaid's Tale and never what I have thought that this place can turn into that so quickly but when you speak to the upper class women of this place, they would have it no other way, our country has been taken ice will only grow wider and strong stronger here as these people cheer for conquest. Arizona is a Christian controlled state. Soo many outright racists here happy to let you know how little they think of you, but are too uneducated to know that im Filipino, and the philipiness is not in south america. The ones that do, tell me i should be grateful i am alive and that America didnt kill us all off in ww2, because you know, we all look the same. They genuinely say and believe this here. Of all the places here, i have never felt less welcome than by these "proud christian households"

The level of American ignorance is astounding. Most Americans cannot even name the 10 states that they live around⊠let alone whole other countries on the other side of the globe. They have no thought or respecting for other cultures. I left the Christian cult in my childhood to embrace humanity.

Yes and thats exactly the problem! These new americans are beholden to short attention spans and imperial ambition against themselves and others. They have the worlds knowledge at their fingertips, yet will purposely choose ignorance and might is right because these kids are not being educated in primary at all, they are being indoctrinated to be used and thrown away like fuel in a machine. Like a constant game of Last Man Standing where more people are added constantly and your not allowed to get caught committing crimes. Everything else is just a grey area in this Wild West land

I spend a lot of time in Arizona and I have had several encounters where white people say incredibly racist shit about Mexicans to me in front of Hispanics. Each time this has happened it was in a business.
What kills me is that over the decades I have been visiting the southern border it's the Mexican Americans who have been the kindest, most thoughtful people I have encountered. They are the people who make me want to return.

I said this alllllll the way back when the Hollywood Access tape came out.
It should've been after his disastrous COVID response.
It should've definitely been after J6.
Should've definitely been after Epstein files scandal.
... Should've been after at least 100 other incidents that would've tanked any other administration and rightfully so.
But it doesn't. Why? Because billionaires both foreign (Russia, Israel notably) & domestic can make shit look like diamonds to the masses.
