What real journalism looks like

Because most of the US has either forgotten or never witnessed real journalism.

Two people are in the foreground wearing grey hazmat suits so only their eyes are visible behind blurry gas masks. They are walking next to a metal door or building that has a code written on it. What can be seen of the code reads vertically down the side: “USMU029054”.

For those who watch imperialist media for their information, and are constantly being indoctrinated by pro-war propaganda disguised as humanitarianism, you have forgotten or never witnessed what real journalism even looks like. Generation Z is particularly vulnerable to this although most generations have fallen prey to this propaganda.

This is what real journalism looks like:

There are people in the background watching them. On the right side is a headline in white text that reads: “Bulgarian journalist confronts US official over secret biolabs”. Below headline text reads: “Arms Watch - June 14, 2019”

Dilyana Gaytandzhieva has been reporting on the US biolabs in Ukraine for years. She has facts, documents, footage, information from insiders who work in the labs, she has visited the sites. Her work is detailed, sourced, transparent. Here is Richard Medhurst interviewing her:

This is her website:

This is one of her highly detailed expose articles:

Article headline from dilyana.bg with black text on white background reads: “Documents expose US biological experiments on allied soldiers in Ukraine and Georgia”. Below reads: “By Dilyana Gaytandzhieva - January 24, 2022”.

This is her latest article:

Here is an investigative documentary she did in 2018:

Dilyana Gaytandzhieva is a real journalist. Just like Julian Assange is a real journalist.

Dilyana says that her Arms Watch website (armswatch.com) is under attack right now, since she has exposed US biolabs in Eastern Europe. When I went to that website, I got a pop up that said “checking your browser” that lasted for several seconds, before it went to the website. After several attempts to catch it each time I went to her site, I got a screenshot of the message:

A white background. Centered is three coloured dots as if the page is loading or buffering. Beneath the dots, centered black text reads: “Checking your browser before accessing armswatch.com.” Beneath that reads: “This process is automatic."

Screenshot This is what popped up when I tried to access the Arms Watch website. Make sure your VPN is on, get on brave.com browser, and try it yourself. Image description: A white background. Centered is three coloured dots as if the page is loading or buffering. Beneath the dots, centered black text reads: “Checking your browser before accessing armswatch.com.” Beneath that reads: “This process is automatic. Your browser will redirect to your requested content shortly.” Beneath that reads: “Redirecting…” Beneath that reads: “DDoS protection by Cloudflare”. “Cloudflare” is in light blue font.

So it identifies itself as protection against DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service Attack). A DDoS attack is when a website gets targeted by someone or something and is flooded with traffic from bots that overwhelm it, which results in the website slowing down or shutting down entirely. It’s a very powerful cyber weapon that requires powerful defense which this appears to be. However, the fact that the website requires this type of defense could still harm her traffic because it’s intimidating to see a pop up like this and wonder where the heck you’re being rerouted too and who is tracking your browser. It makes it seem dangerous to be on her website, as if she is dangerous.

Meanwhile, the mainstream media is busy calling her years long detailed, documented, sourced, and proven work “conspiracy theory”:

Article headline on black background with white text that reads: “Russian propaganda on Ukraine’s non-existent ‘biolabs’ boosted by U.S. far right”. Beneath that reads: “Russian and Chinese officials have also pushed the theory, associated with QAnon

Beneath that reads: “Russian and Chinese officials have also pushed the theory, associated with QAnon, which has reached mainstream conservative media in the U.S.”

This smearing is being done despite the fact that the US government has admitted their collaboration with Ukraine in biological research and research into pathogens. US Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland even admitted in Congress while being questioned by Marco Rubio that the US is worried that these research labs would fall into the hands of the Russians. If they’re innocent “research facilities” then why the worry about the Russians controlling them? Surely they have nothing that can be used as a weapon, right?

Screenshot Watch the video here and read the subsequent twitter thread which has even more resources. Image description: Tweet from Glenn Greenwald on white background with black text. Tweet reads: “Ukraine has “biological research facilities,” says Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland, when asked by Sen Rubio if Ukraine has biological or chemical weapons, and says she’s worried Russia may get them. But she says she’s 100% sure if there’s a biological attack, it’s Russia.” Below is footage from CSPAN of Victoria Nuland testifying in Congress, wearing a light blue shirt.

Real journalists get smeared, demonized, gaslit, isolated. Just as Dilyana is being smeared, demonized, gaslit, isolated.

Pay attention to the work of real journalists because they’re risking a lot to tell you the truth. Dilyana is risking a lot to tell you this information. Biological weapons are a war crime and a crime against humanity.

Real journalist Julian Assange has been tortured in a British prison for years on the orders of the US government because he exposed US war crimes.

Article headline from the Lancet in white text on a grey background reads: “The ongoing torture and medical neglect of Julian Assange”. Above the headline reads: “CORRESPONDENCE| VOLUME 396, ISSUE 10243, P22-23, JULY 04, 2020”.

Above the headline reads: “CORRESPONDENCE| VOLUME 396, ISSUE 10243, P22-23, JULY 04, 2020”. Beneath the headline are some of the names of the article authors. At the bottom reads: “Published:June 25, 2020”.

They told you it was acceptable to hunt and torture Julian Assange this way because he is a bad person etc., etc. Except that it doesn’t matter what kind of person he is. He is a journalist who exposed US war crimes and that’s why the US government is busy destroying him, as a warning to all other journalists who dare to confront US imperialism. The UK Supreme Court just denied Assange’s appeal to not be extradited to the US where he will face even more torture including 175 years in prison on trumped up charges.

Your government is lying to you. Your media is lying to you. They are always lying to you because they are in the pocket of the military industrial complex.

Wake up.

Article headline at the top of image reads: “UN Official: Assange Is Being ‘Tortured to Death’ in the UK”. Dated “November 2, 2021”. The bottom half is a blurry picture of a white man, Julian Assange, with a thick white beard.
