Perhaps, I hold an especially jaundiced view, but I do have to quibble with the idea that the western media had any credibility left to squander. Thank you for the report on the Norstream, non-investigation, non-culpability scenario.

"jaundiced" -- I had to look that up (so thank you kindly for expanding my vocabulary). Alas, that's more effort than most are willing to exert in considering what's plain as day right in front of their faces. As I've not followed this story or anything around it, I can't speak to that topic. But here's what I do know about (which speaks to the problem you pointed out and so much more):

What credibility after Iraqs WMD, Syria, vaccine, Libya and Ukraine? There is since 2001 not a single credibility left.
