The Gray Zone is not a trustworthy news source.
To start, Gray Zone founder Max Blumenthal attended the same expenses-paid 2015 gala in Russia, celebrating RT’s 10-year anniversary, at which Jill Stein and Mike Flynn were photographed sitting with Vladimir Putin. Like Flynn, Blumenthal was paid to be there: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/05/flynn-putin-din…
One month after the gala, Blumenthal founded The Gray Zone. At this time he did a 180 from his earlier anti-Assad reporting to become one of that dictator’s biggest supporters: https://www.commentarymagazine.com/articles/bruce-bawer/usef…
The Gray Zone also publishes pro-dictator reports on Venezuela, another ally of the Russian government. Here’s a 2019 video of Blumenthal personally & cheerfully receiving honors from Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who has ruled that country by violence and decree since 2015: https://twitter.com/NicolasMaduro/status/1156588153945427970
Here’s a piece that goes into detail on shortcomings in The Gray Zone’s Venezuela reporting. Blumenthal and his employees have denied the existence of that country’s ongoing humanitarian crisis, in which 20% of the Venezuelan population has fled the country as economic refugees: https://medium.com/muros-invisibles/grayzone-grifters-and-th… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venezuelan_refugee_crisis
Not all of The Gray Zone’s reporting is flawed, but there’s enough to make me seriously question their aims and journalistic integrity. Their source of funding remains obscure. They don’t run ads, don’t sell subscriptions, and their Patreon is tiny, yet they’re flying people all over the world. Blumenthal is also now a frequent Sputnik and RT contributor. It’s my suspicion that they’re a propaganda outlet aimed at Western skeptics, the anti-war crowd, and intellectuals.
Sveta Ukrajina ne more narediti nič narobe!
Še enkrat v opomin, kako je rusofilček Kosabrin nekaj tednov nazaj odprl topic, kako odhaja iz tega suba, namesto žalovanja pa sprožil val navdušenja 😂
Fak ste nadležni rusofili s temi naziji. Rajš najprej pred svojim pragom počistite.
Ja, napadi z improviziranimi eksplozivnimi sredstvi nad civiliste je zločin. To je razlog, zakaj so ljudje tako jezni nad ruskimi napadi.
