Western media always amuses me. Their most effective propaganda are the ones were they don't necessarily lie, but just use words in such a way to create a certain narrative.
Today a cargo plane crashed in Sudan. This has nothing to do with Russia except it was a Russian made plane.
However, this is the important part, (from RT)
"The plane was owned by the local Allied Services air carrier, and was 45 years old".
I did a quick search, and Allied Services is an Indian company. When American-made planes fall, they don't say "American Plane crashes" (such as the Malaysian incident), but mention the airline or the country the airline belongs to. But when it is about Russia, then "Russia" has to come into the headline.
So now let's look at the western headlines,
Russian cargo plane crashes in South Sudan days after Metrojet disaster in Sinai | Daily Mail Online
Here in the headline not only we read "Russian" as the start of the headline, but it is even linked for the readers to the Egypt incident, even though it has absolutely nothing to do with each other.
But now here are other such headlines from other western news,
At least 25 dead after Russian cargo plane crashes along Nile River in South Sudan | Fox News
Russian-made cargo plane crash in South Sudan leaves 'at least 40 dead' - Mirror Online
South Sudan plane crash: Dozens killed in Russian-built cargo aircraft - Telegraph
Russian cargo plane crashes in South Sudan - Al-Arabiya
You will find the same headlines in Newsweek, Washington Times, in Australian news media, in Israeli, and so forth.
Even the ones who don't have it in their headlines, sneak it into the story,such as CNN which has a fair headline,
but still starts the story with,
South Sudan plane crash kills 15; baby among survivors - CNN.com
"A Russian-built". Even if the reader is lazy and doesn't go through the story, the first thing that will stick in their head is "Russian" & "crash".
Check out the many headlines here:
At least 25 dead after Russian cargo...
When Malaysian Airline became missing, did the headlines start with "American passenger plane"? Even though it was Boeing, and therefore, American made?
