How much of a reliable source is Business Insider as opposed to... say something like Newsweek? Do they publish hearsay and wishful thinking, or do they corroborate with sources?

[–] RoboSloth@kbin.social 8 points 2 years ago

They are just using the Institute for the Study of War as their source - and they are the main source used by most western media articles on the war in Ukraine. The ISW basically analyze all the available open source data (videos, Russian milbloggers, etc.) to compile daily reports and map of the front lines.

They're quite good, I check in on them directly regularly. After a while you notice the news articles are just regurgitating their daily reports.
