I thought you were someone that would believe this kind of nonsense from the headline, but fail to look at the substance, like a lib would:

well then I don't believe it like ~~every~~ a right winger. it's that better?
oh ok, you're the one from the other strip of comments. I said I would discuss, so I will. but first things first. that lib part you gave me, is written to be offensive and/or derogative. just this would be enough, on my side, to dismiss you and your opinions: you're too judgemental. also I believe you have multiple accounts.
that said, I don't believe, i think that newspapers and social media are in large part bought to drive certain opinions. In Italy we get news everyday of people trying to go through Mediterranean from Africa to Europe. there are tens of deaths, an all around massacre. small towns which have seen their beaches littered with dead bodies, after months are still mourning that horror. I'm just astonished by how this horror is narrated, and how this narrative fits this or that party narrative. either by "traditional" means (paper and digital outlets) or social media accounts bound to this or that party, again. I won't give you any link. just browse tomorrow italian news outlets, you'll for sure be able to read it - don't use ai or other tools: you're going to lose the more fine grained discourses.
and try to keep your judgemental mouth at rein; not always, just start to try to. and if where you're from that wouldn't be considered judgemental, welcome to a new point of view.
Quite frankly I'm not familiar with the particulars of Italian news as of late.
For American news yes there is not as much criticism of Imperialism. I've noticed that some British outlets like the Guardian can often highlight the US's role in imperialism. However, I think this is due to the owners' distance from the problem. Yes western europeans are part of NATO that have destroyed north African countries, but they'll focus on the US's involvement, but not their own government's complacency in supporting NATO.
Your news outlets in Italy, probably don't have to sell ad space for Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, or Beyond Petroleum. Italian news outlets likely have to suppress news that makes different corporations look bad.
