This role includes suppressing relevant history of the lead-up to the war, attacking people who bring up that history as 'conspiracy theorists', accepting official government pronouncements at face value, and promoting an overly rosy picture of the conflict in order to boost morale. For most of the war, most of the US coverage has been as pro-Ukrainian as Ukraine's own media, now consolidated under the Zelenskyy government. Subject Headings |
