Hmmm… seems like Lenny has been discovered…
Check out these sources, folks.
I actually took the time to read through the article, now I wish I hadn’t. The whole thing reads like a spy novel conspiracy theory so I had to look up the site… and sure enough, they are actually rated as very low on factual reporting based on their frequent conspiracy theories. I do find it interesting that their rating is also “Far-Left Biased”,makes me feel like this whole article was an attempt to shift that back towards center.
Then again, it was also expected. OP posts at least one article a day weakly attempting to bash the Biden administration, so this is par for the course.
Tell me you’re young without telling me you’re young.
Mint press is the publisher. The author is the important bit here. Sy Hersh is responsible for breaking lots of stories, and you should recognize his name.
He’s probably the last of the independent journalists.
And Sy Hersh has been criticized by a number of journalists for falling down a conspiracy rabbit hole in recent years, with his reporting on the nordstream attack being a major example.
Wow, talk about circular reasoning. You can’t trust this because the guy has a history of being untrustworthy and your evidence is the thing in question. You’re not even trying.
It is an article by Seymour Hersh. They adapted it verbatim from his substack: https://seymourhersh.substack.com/p/a-year-of-lying-about-nord-stream
He has won multiple journalistic awards including Pulitzer. Not a good look for you that your immediate reaction on reading something that upsets you is to immediately hop on to a garbage website like mediabiasfactcheck to vindicate your fairytale biases without engaging in any critical analysis.
Oh the article upset me? Wow I’m glad you let me know, or I would have missed that! I actually said at the time that while it was a nice theory that Russia was trying to sway public opinion towards themselves, I didn’t actually think they could pull off something like that. Keep in mind I never said the idea was crazy, just that I don’t trust either the website nor the style in which this was written.
I am sorry. I genuinely thought you were upset that the OP posts articles that besmirch the veritable Biden administration since you jumped to grasping at straws like the writing style and the mediabiasfactcheck report instead of assessing the original source and author of the article which are usually much better indicators of reliability.
I read all the theories. All I can muster is ‘oh no, not Russia’s pipeline.’ Seems like however you cut it, Russia did this to themselves by invading Ukraine. They were kind of on a more decent path towards meaningful integration for a minute. Would have been good for common Russians and everyone else if they’d stayed on that path. But, instead their leadership decided on extreme aggression.
It is (or rather was, before America destroyed it) also German infrastructure, it’s not just “Russia’s pipeline”.
