Let me guess. You are saying that this is proof that Deep State
deliberately planted this obviously manipulated video in a minor
Israeli news channel to smear poor little Putin.
Here is some background info on that video:
https://tinyurl.com/2n8my6k8
"Israeli TV Aired A 'Star Wars' Clip With Russia-Ukraine Footage & It
Was So Out Of Place
...
What's a TIE fighter from Star Wars doing in the middle of Russia's
invasion of Ukraine?
Israel's Channel 13 News is catching some heat online for a
blink-and-you'll-miss-it mistake in one of its Russia-Ukraine reports
on Monday.
According to videos shared from a current affairs show on the network,
the station played a brief Star Wars promotional video alongside a
bunch of footage from Ukraine.
It was short, but it clearly showed a crashed spaceship and a couple
of Stormtroopers standing beside it on a country road.
How does that happen? We have absolutely no idea, but people were
quick to mock it online.
The original clip was apparently produced for a German TV network in
2014, and it's not an actual scene from one of the movies."
Everybody can see it's fake and nobody ever believed is was from
Ukraine.
"Verification within Meta’s Third-Party Fact-Checking Program"
(Fact-Checking? OMG!. You're being manipulated by Big Deep!!!!!!!)
"Facebook users shared a screenshot from Nastia Savchyshyn’s post, a
girl allegedly appearing in the picture of the Bucha victims. In the
screenshot, the girl denies her death. "
It was a fucking Facebook post. Haven't you learned anything? Here is
another story about a young woman from Bucha:
https://tinyurl.com/2p8cyyvu
"Ukrainian woman raped, killed by Russian troops found in mass grave
in Bucha
The body of a 23-year-old Ukrainian woman has been discovered among
hundreds of corpses in a mass grave in Bucha after she was raped,
tortured and shot in the head, according to her grieving loved ones.
Karina Yershova, who lost her nails in the apparent fight for her
life, was discovered dumped in a garden in the besieged Kyiv suburb,
the Telegraph reported Wednesday.
“She was shot at point-blank range. Almost half of her head was
missing,” Andrii, the tragic woman’s stepfather, told the news outlet
..."
Do you believe the story from New York Post? Is the image of the men
carrying body bags from another time and place and used to falsely
blame Putin?
I can't see the photo and it doesn't say where and by whom the image
was posted. But when the caption says "users claim" I believe it to be
on social media somewhere. You'll never catch me using SM as a
reliable source.
Here's another story about Ukrainian POWs:
https://theworld.org/stories/infamous-russian-rebel-admits-killing-ukrainian-pows-report
"But misleading information – such as wrongly attributed images and
videos – aren’t necessarily part of some calculated plot by bad actors
to manipulate an audience. Social media has cultivated an environment
where users feverishly share and consume information without much
thought. And when content grows distance from its original source or
context and takes on a faux life, the end result is more people are
exposed and may spread the inaccurate information."
I agree, and your example does not debunk the millions of real
pictures from Ukraine showing the horrors of Putin's war.
Great. Now, use that to show me how the images I linked to are
"twisted".

Really? How come that I, a Dane, must explain the difference to you, a
native English speaker? I didn't mean to say that all the reporters
are independent. Many work for established news outlets, big or small.
When I say they work 'independently of each other' it means something
different.

Of course it is! When you have many sources 'independently of each

testimonies. Come on, even you must know that.

God damned, you're slow. I am specifically talking about the people
who DO NOT get their stories from the same source. I'm talking about
people on the ground reporting on the stories from their own
individual perspective.

Yes. Reuters is one of the big ones. But I've made an effort to
explain to you, that there are many reporters who DO NOT use Reuters'
product in their reporting. I have been trying to get you to respond
to their stories.
Nothing there is news to me, and it does not invalidate the news
coming out of Ukraine. Let me ask you, who runs the main news sources
in Russia? Why do you trust them to tell you the truth about the war
in Ukraine?

What about those images and reports that have not been proven false?
Take the story about the dead girl from Bucha, the one whose mutilated
body was found in a mass grave. Should I dismiss that as a lie simply
because an obscure Israeli channel 13 (mistakenly?) used an obviously
fake, a German hoax from 2014?

there is an image of a Ukrainian dude with s Swastika tattoo to be

Strawman detected. No, not all of it gets streamed live. Much of it is
probably never seen by more than a few people. But it exists, and you
can't refute it. Gruesome images of rotting bodies in the streets, and
your reaction is the same 'Deep State, Mockingbird, Putin is the good
