Americans Apoplectic over Putin Interview [Opinion]

You don't have to believe anything that Putin said to see that Tucker Carlson's interview has gotten people talking about Ukraine pre-2022, and starting a discussion is what journalism is all about.

They don't believe it would be informative.

U.S. Propaganda Doesn't Get More Shameless Than 'Jack Ryan'

I actually watched season 1 and found it to be sort of propagandist, but not to the point where I couldn't overlook it and enjoy the show.

That is fact, is it not?
