    I wonder how much of an editorial battle was waged in the NYT offices about whether or not to show the Russian gains alongside the Ukrainian gains

      I've definitely seen a version of this map that only showed Ukrainian gains. So other papers' editorial battles must have gone differently

          critical support cia moles?

          I have seen a lot more negative press coverage of the war lately, the Guardian just published some pretty damning stuff on Zelenskyy's regime and they have normally been strongly pro-Ukraine. Ukraine apparently asked western governments to do strikes on Iran and Syria to stop drones from being sent to Ukraine and put pressure on Russia elsewhere.

          Zelenskyy still trying to start WW3. First it was the no-fly-zone shit, then it was attacking the ZNPP constantly and saying it was Russia, then it was misfiring rockets into Poland and blaming Russia and invoking article 5. Now it's this. Ukraine is absolutely off the rails, it's a rabid dog that needs to be put down
