Neo-Colonial Coverage Of Venezuela Earthquakes Adds Insult To Injury

July 18, 2026 Ricardo Vaz, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. , , ,
A devastating double earthquake hit Venezuela on June 24, leaving a trail of destruction and thousands dead. Dozens of buildings collapsed in coastal La Guaira State, the worst affected in the South American country. The natural disaster followed two unnatural catastrophes: a decade-plus of US-led economic sanctions, and the January 3 US bombing attack and kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro. But rather than sympathize with the beleaguered country, the Western media establishment seized the opportunity to continue demonizing the Bolivarian Revolution—while whitewashing Washington’s economic terrorism and its present efforts to tighten its semi-colonial stranglehold on the country.

The Canary Debanked By Lloyds

July 1, 2026 The Canary. , , , ,
The Canary has been debanked by Lloyds. Despite banking with them for almost a decade they are currently withholding a substantial amount of our money. We are left with barely any funds. Lloyds has not explained why it has taken this action. Despite multiple communications from us, the bank has not been forthcoming with its reasoning. The Canary is now in a financially precarious situation. We do not know when our money that Lloyds is holding will be returned. Moreover, we do not know how it will affect our ability to get another bank account in the future.

Media’s Hasan Piker Meltdown Is About Silencing Dissent

June 16, 2026 Luca Goldmansour, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. , , ,
Former high-ranking Biden administration officials should arguably be facing charges at the International Criminal Court for complicity in the Gaza genocide. Instead, they’re embraced by polite society and enjoy influential posts in corporate media, academia and Washington think tanks. Their concealment of Biden’s declining mental faculties helped precipitate 2024’s disastrous electoral results. Democratic leaders in Congress, ostensibly in an oppositional role, continue to respond to Trump’s militaristic authoritarianism, both at home and abroad, with characteristic fecklessness and even tacit support.

US Steps Up Interference In Australia’s Domestic Politics

June 8, 2026 Paul Gregoire, People's World. , , , , ,
Sydney, Australia — This past March, the Trump administration sent a cable ordering its embassies and consulates to launch local campaigns to proactively combat propaganda targeting the U.S. This initiative, of course, includes the U.S. embassy and its consulates in Australia, where Washington is already monitoring the criminal activity of local migrants and taking a keen interest in other aspects of the country’s domestic sphere. U.S. Secretary of State Mark Rubio signed the March 30, 2026, cable, an initiative that involves the U.S. Department of War’s Military Information Support Operations (MISO), formerly the Pentagon’s Psyops unit.

Jeffrey Epstein, The Russian Mob, And The Maxwells’ Hidden Assets

June 5, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , ,
The release of the Epstein Files has shocked the public with unimaginable stories of the pedophilia, exploitation of women and brash depravity of the ruling class. While these stories have been the major source of public outrage, a deeper dive into the Epstein Files reveals the inside world of how the billionaire class operates to control information and collude with each other - hide their crimes and gain massive wealth at the expense of the working class. In this episode, Chris Hedges speaks with Maureen Tkacik, an investigative journalist who has studied and written about the Epstein Files for The American Prospect and The Nation.

Even American War Hawks Now Admit Iran Is Defeating The US

May 24, 2026 Ben Norton, Geopolitical Economy. , , , , , , ,
It is now widely acknowledged that the United States is losing the war against Iran, which Washington itself started. Even some neoconservative hawks — who were architects of the wars on Iraq, Libya, and Syria, and who for years advocated for an attack on Iran — have now reluctantly acknowledged that Tehran is winning this war, and that Washington’s loss will have massive geopolitical repercussions. “There will be no return to the status quo ante, no ultimate American triumph that will undo or overcome the harm done”, wrote the prominent neocon Robert Kagan in The Atlantic.

USAID, NED And Open Society Quietly Bankroll Cuba’s ‘Independent’ Media

May 16, 2026 Alan MacLeod, Mintpress News. , , , , ,
Amid escalating U.S. aggression towards the Cuban island through a maximum pressure campaign and the threat of military intervention, the United States government has been covertly funding a huge network of Cuban media outlets that claim to be independent in a push for regime change against the independent socialist government.  These outlets present themselves as unbiased investigative journalism, but are quietly being financed by Washington through USAID, the National Endowment for Democracy and the Open Society Foundation in order to sow discontent across the Caribbean nation.

The Regressive Ideologies Behind The ‘Baby Bust’ Panic

May 3, 2026 Julie Hollar, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. , , ,
If you haven’t heard the argument that civilization is about to collapse because women aren’t having enough babies, you haven’t been consuming much media. “The Birth-Rate Crisis Isn’t as Bad as You’ve Heard—It’s Worse,” announced the Atlantic (6/30/25). Business Insider (8/21/25) ran a piece titled “America’s Great People Shortage,” which opened, “America is about to tumble off the edge of a massive demographic cliff.” And NPR‘s Brian Mann warned on PBS (4/10/26) that, as a result of the birth rate decline, “many people say” that the US soon “will be unrecognizable.”

For US Commentators On Iran, Mass Murder Is Magic

April 26, 2026 Gregory Shupak, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. , , , ,
In the wake of the temporary US/Iran ceasefire, hawkish commentary in leading American newspapers advanced the premise that the US can dictate terms to Iran in negotiations, with a faith in the power of Washington’s military might that was hard to justify by the previous course of the war. Whether the Post likes it or not, Iran has a decent hand to play. For instance, Iranian drones cost just $20,000 to produce, and the US uses missiles that cost $4 million each to try and destroy them. Less than three weeks into the war, the US was already estimated to have spent more than $18 billion attacking Iran.

Union, Lawmakers, Performers Condemn Paramount’s Mega-Merger

April 25, 2026 Mark Gruenberg, People's World. , , ,
Hollywood, Calif.—In an orgy of tons of money being thrown around, one monster Hollywood entertainment conglomerate, Paramount, bought another, Warner Bros. Discovery, in a $110 billion mega-merger, which could leave unions, workers, consumers, and lawmakers on the outside looking in while CEOs enrich themselves and an oligopoly’s clout grows larger. And that’s even without taking into consideration that big Donald Trump pal David Ellison, the Paramount CEO, hosted the president at a downtown D.C. bash the night of the deal, April 23. That’s not a coincidence.

Hope In The Data: Can Palestine Explain America’s Moral Shift?

April 20, 2026 Ramzy Baroud, People's World. , , , , ,
In the Middle East, the perception of ordinary Americans has long followed a familiar script: detached, uninformed, inward-looking, and politically shallow— a society of “gas guzzlers,” with little grasp of global realities beyond their immediate geography. This perception did not emerge from thin air. It was cultivated—reinforced, even—by American political and media institutions themselves. Politicians claimed to speak on behalf of “the American people,” while mainstream media shaped what those people knew, and, crucially, what they did not know.

Israel Just Passed A Law Sanctioning The Lynching Of Palestinians

April 16, 2026 Anthony Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. , , , ,
Last month, the zionist ethnostate of Israel, once again,  made its wanton disregard for the humanity and people(s)-centered human rights (PCHRs) of Palestinian people known to the entire world with passage of a new law mandating the death penalty of Palestinians of the Occupied West Bank convicted of carrying out “deadly terror attacks.” By a vote of 62-47, the Israeli Knesset approved the new measure and further stipulated that the executions of Palestinians would be carried out by hanging as the default method of punishment. Passage of the new edict was celebrated by Israel’s right wing National Security Minister and zionist zealot, Itamar Ben Gvir.

Climate Coverage Plunges, Though Crisis More Dire Than Ever

April 15, 2026 Olivia Riggio, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. , , ,
The UN just released its 2025 Global Climate Report, and, predictably, the outlook for our earth is incredibly dire. The past 11 years were the 11 warmest on record, and Earth’s energy imbalance—the amount of solar energy absorbed versus the amount Earth radiates back into space—is also the highest on record. Greenhouse gas emissions continued to increase through 2025, despite the world crossing the 1.5°C threshold marked in the Paris Agreement above which the worst effects of global heating will take place. There is no shortage of urgent climate news right now.

Senior BBC Iran Reporter Exposed As Opposition Activist

April 10, 2026 Wyatt Reed, The Grayzone. , , , ,
On April 6, 2026, horrified social media users began drawing attention to an extraordinary statement allegedly provided to the BBC by a twenty-something Iranian: “About them hitting energy infrastructure, using an atomic bomb, or leveling Iran – my honest reaction is that I’m okay with all of these.” Three hours later, as the uproar grew, the quote suddenly vanished from the BBC’s article. It had been replaced by a far less controversial criticism of the Iranian government. The episode raises serious questions about the BBC’s editorial process, as well as the background and motivations of the author responsible for the article.

Trouble For Nexstar Merger That Would Create Mega-Network For MAGA

April 4, 2026 Pete Tucker, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. , , , ,
It’s not exactly breaking news that President Donald Trump endlessly attacks the media, or that his administration lapdogs quickly echo his gripes. But there’s one official who has stood apart, and he’s done so by not only mimicking Trump, but by remaking the US media in his boss’s image, most recently by rushing through local TV broadcast giant Nexstar’s takeover of Tegna. “Unlike his predecessors, Carr isn’t just another corporate lawyer,” Rolling Stone’s Matt Bai (3/17/26) wrote about Brendan Carr, Trump’s Federal Communications Commission chair: He is a cultural claims adjuster, a pasty-faced, soft-spoken agent of Trump’s retribution. If you were going to single out the most dangerous functionary in Trump’s little circle of Hell, you’d have plenty of candidates…. But don’t sleep on Brendan Carr. His legacy of awfulness may yet prove more durable.
