LMAO so this is 100% a Chinese propaganda website. Have you looked at the articles there? Not saying it’s true or not true. But first of all, this article is from 2021 and secondly I don’t buy Chinese propaganda.

Sorry to hear you only consume US state approved propaganda.

Why on earth would you assume I consume US media, let alone what kind of US media I allegedly consume? Unlike you I actually was born and grew up in a dictatorship with actual state approved media. Your stupid comment is an insult to the victims of dictatorships everywhere.

I grew up in USSR, and a lot of numbskulls called it a dictatorship.

Ahh the old whataboutisms come out.

Screeching whataboutism is a really round about way to tell us that you’ve got nothing meaningful to say.

Ok.

Let’s be real about this for a second.

You are implying that the media in the US is as state controlled and state supporting as the media in China and therefore that neither is more true than the other, merely a viewpoint. Is that actually what you’re saying?

I don’t read very much US news. A bit of WP and occasionally CNN, but it’s certainly not where I get my news from. I don’t live in the US FWIW.

You still haven’t answered my question: Do you believe that the US press and the Chinese press is both lying to the same extent? Do you believe the US and Chinese press are in service of the state to the same extent?

I’m not disputing the press is influenced in the US. You keep speaking in absolutes though … I’m speaking about degrees. So let’s compare degrees, instead of saying “influenced” or “free” as some absolute binary measures.
