I'm from the UK and would agree with you. Now is not the time to be consuming content from any government media

It's also not the time to be consuming content from companies to be fair

Fair. I'm just trying to be alert to who controls the media I consume. Too many people in the UK blindly trust BBC and then criticise Russians for listening to what their government tell them

True, but that's something you'll always have to keep in mind when reading any kind of news.
