These facts seem obvious to me comparing USA and Russia USA media is HUGE in terms of people/journalists employed compared to the shrivelled Kremlin dominated publicity orgs tolerated in Putins Russia. Look how Putins system railroaded Navalny to his death - just a few months ago - USA does have a significant Mafia/Mob org who have the ability to murder those who annoy them - Is the USA DeepState killing journalists ? I think back to witnesses incl some Journos - killed or harmed after the JFK killing https://spartacus-educational.com/JFKdeaths.htm Nothing more recent jumps to mind as being comparable I think nothing in the USA compares to the Russian industrial scale murder of journalists over decades.
