    The level of hypocrisy in those statements is mind-boggling. How about we blame the real perpetrator — Israel, for escalating and creating a “grave threat to regional security” and then try to appease Iran by punishing Israel for their blatant violations of internation law.

    P.S. That one person who reads this and thinks I in any way support violence against Israeli civilians because I don’t blindly agree with what I read and dare to question the narrative, I don’t. I’m against all violence of civilians.

          I think the opposite is true. If it’s funded by someone who, the person has negative or positive associations that can influence how the person perceives what they read. The same network can have good, bad, well researched, poorly researched or even paid advertisements in the article. Judging individual content on its own, is the only way to have the most objective read. We are already influenced by our own bias based on our own life experiences, environment and other factors.

            … honestly that makes no sense. Being aware of funding sources allows you to be weary of bias and the potential point of view driving a story. This goes for any source. This is not a dig at you, but generally good practice.

            One’s own personal biases is another matter altogether.

        I never said it was biased. If you read my source article, journalists working for Euronews have also said they haven’t been limited yet in reporting on Hungarian topics, or anything related to Orban. I do still think it’s important to realise who owns a news outlet. Especially if if’s Orban who is a big investor.

    This ‘attack’ is like the joker in home room ‘attacking’ the teacher with a spitball. It’s nothing much, and certainly nothing “world leaders” need to worriedly respond to.
