Our monolithic mainstream media echo chamber.
UPDATE: Here is the “backstory” from The New York Times. The New York Times
has been apologists for virtually every evil genocidal regime on the planet for over
100 years. They served as the complacent and compliant mouthpiece for every
presidential administration lying our nation into war since McKinley and Spain
in 1898, to Trump and Syria in 2017. The New York Times — think of: Calling
for the death by hanging of inventor Thomas Alva Edison; The New York Times
revised its own history by omitting the Armenian genocide during World War I;
Stalinist stooge Walter Duranty and the Ukrainian famine of 1932-33;
The Times shameful cover-up of the Nazi Holocaust in the early 1940s;
China, Mao Zedong, and the myth of “agrarian reformers” in the late 1940s;
Herbert L. Mathews, Fidel Castro and Cuba in the 1950s; The Times continues
its over fifty years of lies and cover-up concerning the murder of JFK and the
coup d’état by Lyndon Johnson and the top echelon of the National Security State;
Vietnam and the Gulf of Tonkin in the 1960s; The Times belated admission of
Contra-Cocaine during the Reagan years; Jayson Blair and plagiarism; Judith Miller,
Iraq, and Saddam Hussein’s Weapons of Mass Destruction. As with Iraq, The New
York Times propagates demonstrable lies about Syrian WMD; and The Times lying
about Putin, the Ukraine, and the New Cold War.
