I have and I think that there is validity to the propoganda model.

But the propoganda model does not say that all reporting by Western media is false, only that Western media has a hidden bias. But while Western media has an underlying bias to shape a narrative that fits the interests of the wealthy, Chinese state media has an overt and explicit bias to push the narrative in a direction that fits the interests of the state.

So why would I be more skeptical of western reporting on the incident?

Wild, when I read or watch literally any popular western media I find the bias overwhelmingly explicit and overt. It’s almost like you’re too deep in the propaganda to claim any perspective outside of it.
