Ofc the other Imperial managers would not tolerate their biggest propaganda organ being shutdown.

soco•1h ago

Leaving it with only Sputnik is not exactly helping humanity either.

mc32•1h ago

There’s also “Xin hua” and many others, including BBC, CBC, etc., filling the void.

Al Jazeera is great too.

criddell•43m ago

My takeaway was that VoA can be shutdown, it just needs to be done so according to the law.

Simulacra•29m ago

My read is that it's all about the dollars. The court cannot force Congress to appropriate money, and so if there is no money appropriated to run VoA then the administration has no money from Congress to run it, and cannot be forced to restore it.

Why does this comment get voted down? Which part are people against hearing/reading about? Is it the fact that the USA is an empire, the fact that its own journalistic efforts are propaganda, the claim that VoA is the biggest propaganda organ, or something else?

kasey_junk•33m ago

That the emperor is the one that shut it down in the first place. So some part of the statement is logically inconsistent.

kelipso•16m ago

Not really. He is just one of many imperial managers.

Schlagbohrer•16m ago

It is not logically inconsistent. The "Imperial Manager"ial class mentioned in the OP is multifaceted. That is to say, there are warring factions within the ruling class who disagree on details about certain things. (other things they are fully aligned on such as stamping down on the working class)

What’s with the page blocking Cloudflare popup? I can’t dismiss in on mobile.

defrost•43m ago

Simple enough, just reverse the arrow of time and unshatter that vase, restore allied trust, and un-DOGE all the clogged pipelines.

frereubu•11m ago

These kinds of victories really are thin gruel, aren't they?

pjc50•6m ago

Don't forget to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

I am reading the comments under the AP article and wondering how many of them are just bots yelling at each other.

Dead internet theory is creeping up on me.

roysting•16m ago

I don’t see any comments at all, at least on mobile. Is this a bot?

I was going to look at the comments out of curiosity, because I was surprised that there would be any comments at all on an AP article, for several reasons.

blokey•11m ago

I think that might be a "you" thing, there certainly are comments. And here's a link to APNews' comment guideline page, showing they have comment sections on lots of places in their website

Unsure why you jump to "is this a bot" conclusion, seems a little odd.

Here are a few I see:

Comment by burkej27. 41 MIN AGO No state run media!

Comment by Robertl. 55 MIN AGO Is there anything that Trump does that is legal and won’t be overturned? What a waste of 4 years. They should be held responsible to the 1000 people damaged by his actions. If he can’t then his cabinet.

Comment by Trumpisyourpresident. 1 HR AGO Just like NPR, it's the voice of liberal America, not America, so it should not be funded.

Comment by KendallGrubb. 1 HR AGO We’re not in the 1950’s building Crystal am radios anymore. The cost of this service is unnecessary given today’s media options

I guess that is what happens when you don't stuff the courts with loyal judges.

LightBug1•30m ago

Gonna take a generation to unpick and fix the Trump/DOGE bullshit ...

Schlagbohrer•15m ago

One hopes if it is rebuilt it's rebuilt to be "good" rather than bad/evil

saved for later. exactly the kind of deep dive i was looking for
