I smell musk...
Why are suddenly major (centre and left-leaning) publications willing to lose their credibility among a sizeable part of their reader base?
There were millions watching the trial and are now feeling not exactly happy about the gaslighting. I have seen more and more comments where life-long Guardian or NYT readers are asking questions (e.g. on Facebook) that "if they lie and gaslight us about this, what else they have lied about".
And meanwhile, conservative and right-wing publications manage to depict the trial and result accurately (Sky News Australia, Fox, The Telegraph).
It is all very odd.
