There is a disturbing number of people who simply think anything they don't understand or agree with is not real, and that anyone who tells them otherwise is a paid liar working for a vast conspiracy against them personally.

Denying three media outlets access to the White House, despite a judge’s order, and then praising Chinese state media for being “friendly”? Xi couldn’t have asked for a better gift. China is one of the world’s worst jailers of journalists, with 100+ behind bars, per RSF.
