Welcome to the Ogre Nation anyway!As Month Three of Trump’s quick and easy war drags on, the legacy press finds itself in a state of quantum uncertainty. They can’t seem to figure out if the war is over, like the regime keeps saying every other day, or if the fact that the Strait of Hormuz is still closed and we keep bombing Iran means the war is still happening.Who knew being a journalist was SO complicated and reporting on facts could be so confusing!? Thank god so many of them went to journalism school to learn how to parrot whatever the regime says instead of reporting what is actually happening. Think of the confusion if the New York fucking Times looked out the window and just wrote what they actually saw: No ships going through the Strait and an energy crisis just weeks away from spiraling out of control. Total chaos!Fuck these people.Ogre Nation News Update!2:00 - 12:10 Is the Iran War still going on or not? The press is literally telling us yes and no at the same time.
