From wikipedia:

China Daily is an English-language daily newspaper owned by the Central Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party.

Ah good, a trustworthy source.

Good thing the Western media has been so trustworthy when it comes to this issue. Nine months ago, it was The Official Truth that Putler blew up his own pipelines for no reason because he's the hecking Jonckler, and anyone who questioned that narrative was labelled a pro-Kremlin tankie troll. Now, oops, maybe the US or Ukraine had something to do with it after all!

NATOpedia is also one to talk when it comes to what news sources are considered "propaganda", since they think CIA propaganda outlets are reliable enough sources to use in their articles.

edit: lol, instinctive downvote even though everything I said was true.
