Historical Context of Civilian Airliners Shot Down
The media's use of historical precedents, such as the 1988 US downing of Iran Air 655 and the 1983 Soviet downing of KAL 007, is analyzed. The hosts argue that the history of the KAL 007 flight is being rewritten to omit evidence that it was a spy mission. They suggest these historical reminders are used to prime the public for the current narrative against Russia.
