Are these War Crimes?
Why are the Networks here censoring the story?

It was a remarkable moment in the war in Europe: President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine gave a 90-minute-long Zoom interview on Sunday to four prominent journalists from Russia, the country invading his.
Hours later, the Kremlin responded. A government statement notified the Russian news media “of the necessity to refrain from publishing this interview.”
Journalists based outside Russia published it anyway. Those still inside Russia did not. The episode laid bare the extraordinary, and partly successful, efforts at censorship being undertaken in Russia by President Vladimir V. Putin’s government as his bloody invasion of Ukraine enters its second month, along with Mr. Zelensky’s attempts to circumvent that censorship and reach the public directly.
In the interview, Mr. Zelensky offered a graphic description of what he claimed was the Kremlin’s disregard for both Ukrainian and Russian lives, to the point, he said, that the Russian army was slow to pick up the bodies of its fallen soldiers.
“First they refused, then something else, then they proposed some sorts of bags to us,” Mr. Zelensky said, describing Ukraine’s efforts to hand over the bodies of Russian soldiers. “Listen, even when a dog or a cat dies, people don’t do this.”
In the interview, Mr. Zelensky blamed Mr. Putin for manufacturing the enmity between Russia and Ukraine. He said the war would have the opposite effect of what Mr. Putin apparently planned — marking a definite split between the Russian and Ukrainian people, rather than somehow reuniting them.
“This is not simply a war, this is much worse,” Mr. Zelensky said. “A global, historical, cultural split has happened over this month.” Mr. Zelensky’s descriptions of the violence of Russia’s invasion ran directly counter to the Kremlin narrative, which accuses Ukrainians of firing on their own cities and blames them for any civilian casualties

Does the NYT have the ‘nards to criticize the Russians for censoring news they don’t like? Really?
Zelensky is crushing the transsexual movement in Ukraine.
The shirtless Vlad crew doesn’t like that.
How long did the NYT “quash” the Hunter laptop story?
The New York Times only prints what the FBi tells them.
They even are told Publication dates.
The “US” doesn’t quash anything. It is done by Facebook, Twitter, and the MSM.
They all intermingle and agree with each other.
It is us normals they dislike and conspire against.
I’m curious as to whether the NYT felt the need to inform their readers that Zelenskyy just shut down the major opposition parties in Ukraine and nationalized the media. If not, why not?
“They even are told Publication dates.”
I had a date once...
After that, there was no use in dating anyone else -
Demoralized Russian troops reportedly shoot themselves in legs to avoid fighting

They’ve been finding Ukrainian ammunition to do it. Now, Russia is claiming that Ukrainian soldiers are shooting PWs in the legs and torturing them.
Television propaganda in Russia is mind bending, and there are some interesting stories about it written by Russians in the past.
Sure NYT. As if censoring the news is a bad thing.

Your CNN is censoring it.
Say there are reports…. Like they do every night all night.
.
Of course journalist in the USA would have published Hitler interviews in the USA during WW2.
“My” CNN?
That’s simply adorable. If you’re giving credence to hacks like Jim Hoft and “Sundance,” you have no stance to criticize ANY media… even the laughable propagandists at CNN.
