So they finally noticed that Zero Hedge was not licking their boots.

Zerohedge is one of the few places that actually has news.

The true censorship is coming right from our government who controls the media and everyone in it.

ZeroHedge is a fun website to scroll thru. Lot’s of good info and off the wall stuff. They must have hit a nerve.

Remember when Romney and Obama were debating and Romney called Russia the number one geopolitical foe of the US?

Remember what Obama said? “The 1980s called. They want their foreign policy back!”

And the media laughed and dog piled on Romney’s statement.

Now, the democrats and the media see Russia everywhere they look.

Crazy times.

“Zero Hedge denied the claims and said it tries to “publish a wide spectrum of views that cover both sides of a given story.”

That’s their whole problem right there.

I like Zero Hedge. Their articles are interesting, and the comments are usually amusing (but not as good as the ones on Free Republic, of course).

However, the place does has a pro-Russian and anti-Semitic tinge to it. It’s not present in every article, but it’s there.

Now having said that, I am quite uncomfortable with the government rating news sites for us. If the site is not advocating violence (and Zero Hedge isn’t) the government should not be fussing about it.

Yes, and they want you to stop listening to Joe Rogan’s podcast, too.

it hardly matters wwhat Zero Hedge says. Ukraine has been a possession of russia for over 2 centuries. If Russia wants to invade and take it over, and the Ukrainian government cannot defend itself against such an invasion, then Ukraine will again be part of Russia.

Ukraine is not even a member of any of our alliances in the European theater, such as NATO.

The US has absolutely no business involving itself in this matter. It has NOTHING to do with us and we should not allow our soldiers to expend their blood on this matter. Nor should we allow our equipment or tax dollars (treasure) to be expended on this.

Zero Hedge is a Russian news outlet. But with that in mind, often offers up truth and opinion you don’t see elsewhere. Just beware the source. No big deal.

After what we have all seen in the last 15 years there is absolutely NO REASON to ever believe anything the “intelligence Quislings” have to say, and it would be a Very Safe Bet to conclude anything they say is exactly opposite of the Truth

“The website was an early amplifier of conspiracy theories and misinformation about the COVID-19 pandemic. An Associated Press investigation determined the site played a pivotal role in advancing the unproven theory that China engineered the virus as a bioweapon. It’s also posted articles touting natural immunity to COVID-19 and unproven treatments.”

So AP thinks Zero hedge is unreliable for advancing an “unproven theory” about Covid origins. Mike Pompeo, former US Secretary of State, and Robert Redfield, former Director of the US CDC, have also publicly stated believe the lab origin theory. The Nicholas Wade articles about this theory were first published in The New Yorker. The Atlantic has also promoted this theory. Nicholas Wade was the science editor of The New York Times, The AP is obviously shilling for China. They should be banned and Zero Hedge should get a Pulitzer.
Zerohedge has also posted articles about “natural immunity”??? OMG take the AP and flush it. Natural immunity has been proven so many times to be so effective that anyone who denies it should be banned. The AP is a disgrace. Now, considering that the AP is full of crap on Covid origins and natural immunity, what does it mean if they also think Russia is actually not planning to invade Ukraine? I don’t know but I would trust Zerohedge and assume AP is lying, since they lie about Covid origins and Natural immunity.
