It's a pity he couldn't describe the genocide practiced by Russia in Ukraine. Instead, he prefers to utilise the very propaganda he so artfully inserts to demonise Ukraine's centuries long quest for independence from Russia. Pilger has become a hypocrite.

I've been following John since I was a young lad in late 70s and distinctively remember his reporting from Cambodia and the atrocities committed by Khmer Rouge, then later in my late teans reading his work about the wider dirty war around Cambodia, the unholy alliances between US and China, using Cambodia as a sideshow. Then more recently his amazing doc on future war with China and how that was unlaid by colonial racism towards the Chinese. I recognise when I was young listening to Angela Rippon or Kenneth Kendall that the news was always one-sided but at least they just presented it in a factual way however tunnel focused it was. Now when I watch someone like Tom Bradby on News at Ten, I'm appalled at his constant personal narrative that accompanies the news. If that was a Jerry Springer monologue everyone would be up in arms, this brainwashing and spin on how to think is so disturbing.

Tell the truth?! Are you kidding? The truth doesn't generate ratings which in turn doesn't generate short term capital gains. Americans don't want to hear or care about truth, they only want to hear what they want to hear and nothing else. Just ask FOX News, they don't deal in truth, all they deal in is ratings and telling the people exactly what they want to hear to generate those ratings. Kinda like a KZitem reaction video, you don't have to like the crap your reviewing, you just have to pretend you do. Propaganda is nothing but telling people what they want to hear. The truth is what they need to hear but not what they want to hear. You can't hear the truth when all you want to hear and believe is the propaganda. And that is American culture in a nut shell and that is why a network like FOX has the highest ratings. There just happens to be this thing in America called the alternative truth and that is what Fox deals in because that is what their viewers want.

I'm photo capturing that because I have only heard of Murdoch, Toohey and West. I might disagree with Murdoch's inclusion as I believe his role, along with Charles Bean's was muddling that of journalist and historian with that of propogandist. All these proprietor types like Pulitzer and Hearst had symbiotic relationships with militarist government: the former would provide the case for war, while the latter would provide the war for the former to report on. I suspect that if Keith Murdoch was even a tenth like Pilger, he and his parasitic son would be but a footnote in history.

The description of 'special military operation' is never used to describe the conflict by western MSM ergo you then KNOW their use of the words 'unprovoked invasion' is false because, if you are wise you look to recent history, and realise there are Nazis in Ukraine and it was provoked. You can find for example, BBC reports from 2014 about the rise of nazism that totally refute their present positions and bias. Basically you check every assertion now in western media because of a history of lying. As a rule of thumb in the current climate you can facetiously assume the opposite is true of what they assert.

Great man. His doc. ''The Coming War With China'' (free, on YT) was made years ago, yet is MORE relevant today, than when released.

Whether it be journalism, audio or video clips, the reporter's job is to tell the reader or viewer an honest story and to include, “Who, What, When, Where and Why”. To omit one or more elements constitutes opinion where the reporter can shape a story to fit a bias. Modern, corporate or government media, leaves the “Who, What, When, Where and Why” to the reader to ask or research for missing elements. This is how a story from the West and the East can be true, but are like night and day...

The problem with Pilger is not that he hasn't produced valuable critiques of Western regimes - because he has. It's that he has never subjected authoritarian regimes to the intense degree of scrutiny that they deserve. This problem began during the Vietnam War. I haven't really the space to write about it here, but it's worth reading what his compatriot Clive James had to say on this. You don't have go down the road of being an apologist for the hideousness of North Vietnam, Putin's Russia or Xi's China, because you dislike so much about the culture from which you yourself have arisen and feel somewhat embattled within. George Orwell, for example, didn't make such a mistake - but the tragedy is, we have no one of his calibre now.

My brother is a very well read person, he has a loathing for the so called 'west', to the extent that he supports Russia, with the hope that all of the Western gov's will come tumbling down over their support for Ukraine. It doesn't seem to bother him that if this happens, the innocent population will suffer immensely.

This ingrained western moral superiority complex, which by the way has absolutely no grounding in reality, is the reason why the likes of Pilger, whatever his flaws may be, are an absolute treasure for a bankrupt civilization like the current west. Pity the jaundiced types this comment speaks for will never appreciate it because their fragile egos and identities are way too invested in the idea of 'western exceptionalism'

In the extreme callowness of my youth I had utter contempt for these naive “anti establishment” journalist types who questioned the formal narrative but now I realise how integral a part of a functional democracy they are whether you agree with their viewpoint or not. Another case of not missing something until it’s gone. We need a new generation of them before it’s too late. A good university would be pumping them out by the dozen, which says a lot about our universities I fear. The current woke madrasas are perhaps not places of academic enquiry anymore. 😢

Pilger has always been on the right side of history. Russia has always been on the right side of history also, since 1917...and even prior, on most occasions. I remember Pilger since the 80's studying at university..using him as reference to many arguments I put forward. There is that trust in him, that only honest people achieve deeply in the soul of other honest people. "What goes around comes around." Here we see John once again, honestly giving the facts and proper analysis .. just like he always did. The world would be so much poorer and nastier without people like John Pilger.

I used to have a lot of respect for John Pilger, but like so much of the left, he seems to have taken the view that 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend'. As he is opposed to much that the west has done, therefore Russia and China must be right. i would be interested to hear his opinions on the 'truth' of their press and how they treat their people.
