This is actually great, because some people out there insist that @theintercept is this fiercely adversarial news joint, that their serious credibility challenges the narrative of a unified US-backed propaganda-blitzkrieg. https://twitter.com/arslan_hidayat/status/1358475630715670529
The facts are:
