It reminds me of the reporting about the Syrian civil war. All news reports either described a situation where the rebels or Assad were going to win and take over the country next week. No-one even suggested an outcome similar to what actually happened. It seems like war reporting as it currently stands has almost no predictive value.
I've intentionally been avoided actually reading about the war and this meme is exactly some conversations I've accidentally read.
