How the New York Times Is Manufacturing Consent for War; about Adam Entous
What if the war in Ukraine isn’t just being fought with missiles — but with headlines, framing, and narrative timing?
In this episode, I dissect two high-profile New York Times articles that function less like journalism and more like state-sanctioned narrative engineering.Published over a year apart — February 2024 and March 2025 — these pieces unveil covert U.S. and CIA operations in Ukraine. But the question isn’t what they reveal. It’s why now? And why like this?
This is not a story about Ukraine.This is a story about consent manufacturing, psychological operations, and how the media class sells war to an exhausted public under the banner of "truth."
🔍 In this breakdown:
How modern propaganda works through selective truth, not lies
What The New York Times chose to reveal — and what they carefully omitted
Why the timing of these articles is not accidental, but strategic
How public perception is managed to justify endless escalation.
🎧 Based on my ongoing work analyzing propaganda, public relations, and information warfare — on YouTube and Substack.
