Your comment reveals a lack of media literacy. There is a fundamental difference between Russian outlets like TASS and RT, which are state-controlled, and Fox News, which is corporate-owned. State media acts as the direct voice of the government, whereas corporate media answers to advertisers and owners. This makes the bias in state media far more explicit regarding national interests; their agenda is transparent. Conversely, Fox News still operates within a framework of journalistic standards and market competition. It contains valuable context depending on the situation, so dismissing it entirely is a mistake
I know this. I just don’t think state-controlled media is much different from corporate media under oligarchy. US don’t have state media (edit: state-owned, not just state-funded) as far as I know, but if they were, those media would simply change bias toward the ruling party.
I mentioned Fox News because they feel similar in spirit: conservative and usually not trustworthy.
State media is biased towards it’s ruling party/class and therefore not trustworthy. I’ll assume whatever media source that confirms my bias is trustworthy
Sounds like an echo chamber
Also
US don’t have state media
PBS, NPR, CSPAN, VoA, RadioFree, etc
Parenti and Chomsky to some degree argue that private corporate media is closely aligned to state interest, due to its intertwining with intelligence services
I’ll assume whatever media source that confirms my bias is trustworthy
Why are you making up what I think?
PBS, NPR, CSPAN, VoA, RadioFree, etc
I realized that I wrote “state media” when I meant “state-owned.” The media you listed are state-funded, while TASS is state-owned. But that’s not the point. I’m not a native speaker, so sometimes what I say might not be entirely clear. I’m saying that some sources are worse than others. I don’t like TASS or RT, similar to the mentioned Fox News - you can see my comment above as an example of why.

Also your posts from TASS and RT downvoted on ML as well.
Have fun getting all your information from the modern equivalents to Goebbels
I don’t think sources like TASS are any different.
You say both are bad yet you default to only trust western sources
I’m not a westerner. But TASS and RT are like Fox News in the US. Those are simply bad sources.
