Hasn’t it been fascinating to observe the near total SILENCE of the global liberal media over the Iran people’s revolution. Over on X I had a post go viral the other day calling out the hypocrisy of the BBC on this issue. If it was GAZA that was experiencing mass protests, they would be all over it. But when it’s the Mullah-led Shia supremacy in Iran .. crickets.
Even this morning (8th Jan), more than a week into the Iranian revolution, the BBC is leading on the Minneapolis story, still agitated over Greenland and Venezuela, but with zero front page coverage of Iran. A lot of people have noticed this curiosity and I wanted to consider why the media is mute on it.
For starters, we may be about to witness the fall of a MUSLIM regime brought about by ordinary people sick to the back teeth of the Ayatollahs and their dark ages primitivism. The media cannot lay this one on Trump so it’s hard for them to outwardly comment that people can reject Islam.
Secondly, countries that loath America and Israel tend to get a sympathetic press. Just look at the sheer begrudgery over the removal of narco-thug Maduro. BBC pundits line up to moan about this “breach of international law”. They had been quiet when Maduro plunged his country into abject poverty. Iran is another poster boy for the left so pushing the fall of Khameinei and his associates is something that they shy away from doing. If this was happening in Israel it would be 24/7 coverage.
Finally, I wonder how many western “journalists” are on the unofficial payroll of the Mullahs?
Another feature of the mainstream’s refusal to provide detailed coverage is that it has further provided new media on X to cover the story. These past few days, my posts on the issue have attracted millions of views from people who want to know what is going on there?
Naturally , if events continue, the liberal media will be forced to cover it more comprehensibly but this is a lesson in why you must not trust the biased media!
