Would you link to one? I just used duck duck go on incognito and after fighting several times to convince DDG I DONT MEAN LASAGNA I still didn't find any news about it.

Thank you for the links but Wikipedia isn't mainstream media (it's trustworthy, but not the discussion we are having) and yahoo..... Is it just reposting The Daily Record?

The references are though boss, there's several.

Also no the daily record is repeating the bbc and afp not the other way round.

Ummm...... ? I don't know how to use Lemmy so maybe I'm missing some context, but the first link (which is showing crossed out) is from 2018? And the second link is in French, is there an English report?

So it seems that the MSM is not really reporting on this.... I found a Fox news report (eww) and I saw MSN as well, only after I used incognito mode.

The first one was the wrong link so I edited it out, the second link is the first report of the incident from a major news source which is what was asked.

Those are both main stream and moreover the outlet afp is pushing it with live corrections as they come. Once it's vetted a bit more you'll probably see more about it but it's still not going to be as high of a reported thing as basically anything political at the moment.
