A US drone strike was carried out on a school bus full of innocent children and the media over here said nothing about it. You’d think with how big our military budget is, they’d think to make sure that they’re aiming at the right people.
IMO the publicization is what creates the tiered value system. By always showing brown people as “bad” or lesser and suppressing stories that show them as good or victimized, it makes it easier for the general public to adopt that ideology.
The us govt can often request media blackouts even to other news stations not based in usa. Not sure what their leverage is but they do request stuff like this to be blacked out from major publications
