Vijay Prashad, CounterPunch<\/a>:<\/p>\n

People often ask me, what\u2019s the most reliable news outlet? This is a hard question to answer these days, as Western news outlets are increasingly becoming stenographers of their governments (with the racist attitudes of the reporters on full display more and more often, making the apologies that come later hardly comforting). State-sponsored outlets in Russia and China now increasingly find themselves banned on social media sites. Anyone who counters Washington\u2019s narrative is dismissed as irrelevant, and these fringe voices find it hard to develop an audience.<\/p>\n

So-called cancel culture demonstrates its limits. D\u2019Agata has\u00a0apologized<\/a>\u00a0for his comment about Ukraine being \u201crelatively civilized, relatively European\u201d compared to Iraq and Afghanistan and has already been rehabilitated because he is on the \u201cright side\u201d of the conflict in Ukraine. Cancel culture has moved from the chatter of social media to the\u00a0battlefields<\/a>\u00a0of geopolitics and diplomacy as far as the Russian-Ukraine conflict is concerned.<\/p>\n

\u03a9\u00a0\u03a9\u00a0\u03a9<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, press freedom has been set aside during the current conflict in Eastern Europe, with\u00a0Australia<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Europe<\/a>\u00a0suspending the broadcast of RT, which is a Russia state-controlled international media network.<\/p>\n

D\u2019Agata\u2019s reliability as a reporter will remain unquestioned. He \u201cmisspoke,\u201d they might say, but this is a Freudian slip.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
