Go back to any day from 2/25 on and you’ll find the exact same story. Here’s how the “Russian bear” will be out of gas within a couple of days!
Occasionally something else gets reported. With all the remarkable Ukranian victories that have been won, the front page of the New York Tmes for March 20th was really confusing.

"Russian forces made significant gains in Ukraine on Saturday, advancing into the besieged port of Mariupol, destroying an underground weapons depot in the west and leaving a marine barracks in ruins...." "To the northwest and to the east, tens of thousands of Russian troops are pressing toward the city, Ukraine's capital, backed by columns of tanks, armored vehicles and artillery." David Kilcullen, a retired Australian Army colonel, was quoted saying, "If they really, really want to level Kyiv, they can."
They have already effectively leveled Mariupol. The Ukranians can say they do not surrender until they have to leave their bomb shelters to get water and food.
The Times must be preparing the public for the propaganda bubble to burst.
The ceasefire/peace talks are proceeding at a relatively break neck pace. If Putin and Zelenskyy can come to terms before DC widens the war, there will some questioning of why Winston Zelenskyy sold DC out. Maybe the truth about Zelenskyy’s hopeless situation will be allowed to be told. The media masters flip the switch and the next day the befuddled, beaten, cowering wreck, the Russian Army, becomes the all powerful, brutal, methodical Mongol horde about to overrun all of Europe.
