I see a lot of politico links in this sub and I’d just like to say:

POLITICO Europe is a subsidiary of Axel Springer SE.

That’s a right leaning and pretty unethical publisher and politico has already been caught several times spreading reactionary propaganda. I also suspect they publish undisclosed opinion pieces as news. Like some fossil fuel investor explaining how wind turbines could be hacked by China without providing any compelling evidence. Many articles are well written so it’s hard to spot the grift sometimes. Just stay vigilant.

    I was confused there and thought you were saying that they were bought by the Shell corporation. But after doing some searching and reading, I see what you mean: a shell corporation.

    There’s definitely concern around Victor Orban’s influence. And your own news Euronews have had Clickbait headlines for quite awhile already. I prefer DW now myself.

      DW is operated by the German government with the goal to further the “German viewpoint” internationally. It is not a public broadcaster, but explicitly operated by the federal government.
