Zero Hedge has articles from widely divergent viewpoints. Readers must digest the information presented and decide for themselves - which I guess the US Government considers far too much of a burden for its more devoted supporters.

‘’ The officials briefed The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive intelligence sources. ‘’

There you go.

Political hacks and ideologues who are just looking out for us sheep.

So say the liars who peddled the "Russia collusion" falsehood for years.

They've gone from bias to propaganda to openly calling for censorship and jailing of political and business competitors.

As they sow so should they reap.

ZeroHedge is as tied to the Russians as FreeRepublic - anonymous sources say.

No, they just want us to be silent. Or silenced, either way. Look for (i) Fact Checks to appear soon whenever someone mentions peace in the Ukraine.

“Do they really expect us to believe this dreck after the latest news from Durham’s investigation?”

It’s Zero ?Hedge, this is true.

But so?

They don’t like when they publish real things.their propaganda is an excuse.

New York Times is propaganda as are most major newspapers.

Whatever... the US government removed the prohibition against domestic propaganda and now they inundate us with it.
Chinese propaganda floods us in movies, news and government edicts. Any Russian effort would be pissing in the wind.

Russian propaganda is easily recognizable “no NATO eastward invasions”,”the 2020 election was stolen”, “communism is bad and America should avoid it”, “homosexuality is weird and goes after kids”, “Christianity is under attack”, Covid was created in a lab by Fauci”...

Bad stuff. Very dangerous thoughts. /s

Russian propaganda serves Russia.

They work in coordination to weaken the morale of their enemy, the American people.

The best propaganda serves up a smattering of truth, mixed with mostly deception and manipulation. The Russians are good at it. Many on FR have fallen for it.

Do any of the government officials complaining about articles from sources that might be linked to a foreign government sharing incorrect information ever object to the utter lies that CNN, MSNBC, and a host of other US media outlets repeat endlessly?

Did any of those government officials step up and denounce all the fake news about "Russian" interference in our elections generated by Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and the DNC?

Zeroheges founder’s father worked for Bulgarian intelligence. Many of us suspected it being a FUD site directed by foreign disinformation specialists.

Quote from Avalon Memories: "Do they really expect us to believe this dreck after the latest news from Durham’s investigation?"

They know that most people have never heard of Durham's investigation, and they intend to keep it that way.

See Tagline. Tomorrow, many people at the water fountain will be talking about the five outlets "taking directions from Russian spies", but very little, if any, talk about the Durham investigation.

If the site is not advocating violence (and Zero Hedge isn’t) the government should not be fussing about it.

I'm no fan of violence, but unless the speech on a platform reaches the point of incitement it is protected by the First Amendment.

That's why all the BLM events could feature radical leftist speakers calling for revolution and the overthrow of the United States Government. Or maybe only the leftists are allowed to advocate for violence.

somewhere a playbook is being developed to develop procedures to target and, within some bureaucratic framework, turn a long list of sites/posters effectively off. the recent mdm announcement was both a warning and a public statement of something being worked on internally.

they may or may not pull it off, but it seems very likely they intend to give it their best shot.
