- iratewizard 5y agoYour view of the world should not come from the propaganda box. Unless you enjoy being manipulated.
- eloff 5y agoAre you saying there isn't informative content on tv? That's pretty obviously false. There's a lot of misinformation too, but I don't see how the internet is better there either. You need good critical thinking skills period.
- iratewizard 5y agoRight. They're isn't informative content on TV. There is infotainment and there is entertainment. Only a moron would base a world view around the low quality entertainment they kill time with.

- afuchs 5y agoMost westerner's views of Saudi Arabia are very much influenced by actions the country's government has previously taken [1]. It isn't so much propaganda, as much as it is the government, lead by MSB, taking actions that greatly offends our sensibilities, most notably the killing of Jamal Khashoggi among other smaller incidents and snafus which have made Saudi Arabia and MSB look horrible.
