“Touches upon underreported, emerging issues, but has the exact same problems as typical journalism - picks up the loudest actors that (coincidentally) always speak fluent English. Just gives them a soft platform with zero original research or challenges to guests. This is not always an issue, but without an actual local perspective (i.e. from non-English speakers) you just get the perspective of the top 0.1% earners in the conflict. Because of that, the perspective is heavily distorted and with zero disregard for how working people are dealing with these conflicts and wars.”
