After White House admitted 3 latest objects they shot down were "benign commercial or research crafts", WaPo now confirms China's story about its balloon: it was "diverted on errant path caused by atypical weather conditions."

Absolutely hilarious to go back and look at the stories of the last few days with what we now know, like this one: "Schumer says Chinese ‘humiliated’ after three flying objects shot down"

US admitting that the three objects shot down by US jets may be ‘benign’ balloons. US military admits first shot at object over Lake Huron missed. 😆

@yogthos I've been too personally overwhelmed to pay much attention to the train derailment, but I am seeing some people nearer the site posting shit like "this is the biggest wakeup call re: media manipulation I have ever experienced" and the like so ... people on the ground seem to think it's serious and that it's super weird that corporate legacy media is avoiding reporting on it as much as they can :shrug_akko:

@deutrino yeah the coverage of this disaster has been incredibly sketchy, and the very fact that the reporting is so sparse is an indication that it's likely far worse than being let on
