No it's the legacy media projection on the daily

Doesn't matter what channel you watch

And I do agree, it's a bit ambiguous at this point, but certainly not a concrete fact

The Dems need something to complain about to get voters out for midterms, and per usual the legacy media doing their part of being the lap dog

Not surprising, but unfortunate

The Cronkite days are long gone kids

I think the bigger issue will be gas prices as we head into a longer more drawn out conflict than was purported

I didn't say it though, your lovely legacy media constantly pushing that nonsensical garbage did.

It's far more nuanced than winning/losing.

I ultimately think (personally) we just never should have gone in there in the first place. But this notion that Iran is winning is completely ludicrous.

this is circular

I was asking who in the legacy media has said it.

like a specific headline or talking head?

or is it just a vibe?
 
I mean I can have whatever opinion I want.

Typically (CBS or the NY Times for instance) will title the article "Who is winning the war"

Then as you read there really isn't a lot of positive press about anything we are doing there.

I just don't believe it's as black as white as that. And you can disagree if you want, makes no difference to me.

What are these assertions based on? You've been very vocal about the fact that you don't EVER watch or read MSM.

So how would you know how legacy media is projecting things daily across all channels you never watch, or how accurately articles you never read match their headlines?
 
Just based on articles Dave.
Not only is it legitimately not even close, the assertion that it's close is moronic.

Whether we should have invaded is a legitimate subject.

Who Is Winning the Iran War?

The United States and Israel are devastating Iran's leadership and inflicting significant damage on Iran's already-weak military. Iran, however, is hitting back, and the biggest long-term costs to the United States are likely to be felt outside the Middle East.

well let's dig into the actual article is it biased, nuanced, objective?

IMO wally, it starts out pretty fair.

I'll read the rest at lunch

It is difficult to tell which side is winning in the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran because the objectives and strategies for victory of the combatants are so different. This is even further complicated by the fact that, for the United States, many of the highest costs of the war lie outside the theater of conflict and involve the economic costs to U.S. allies and the diplomatic damage to the United States.

President Donald Trump and his advisers have laid out multiple goals for the United States, some quite limited and others expansive. These include ending Iran’s nuclear program, degrading its missile capabilities and conventional military stocks, stopping Tehran’s support for Hezbollah, Hamas, and other proxy forces, and, most ambitiously, regime change in Tehran. To achieve these goals, the United States and Israel have killed Iranian leaders and bombed Iran’s military forces and infrastructure.
