In their drive to stoke hostilities between [[the West]] and Russia, corporate media ignored the fact that the U.S. and NATO forces have been supporting openly Neo-Nazi paramilitaries in Ukraine for many years. A MintPress study of the op-ed pages of ''The New York Times'', ''The Washington Post'' and ''The Wall Street Journal'' found that only one of 91 articles published in January 2022 mentioned this connection at all, with far more asserting that Vladimir Putin himself is Hitler incarnate. Around 90% of opinion columns pushed a “get tough on Russia” message, with anti-war voices few and far between.<ref>https://www.mintpressnews.com/279612-2/279612/</ref> “People who take at face value the Western media coverage would have a very distorted perception of the Ukraine conflict and its origin,” Ivan Katchanovski, Professor of Political Studies at the University of Ottawa, told MintPress, adding:
{{quotebox-float|"They omit or deny that there is a civil war in Donbas even though the majority of scholars who [have] published or presented concerning this conflict in Western academic venues classify it as a civil war with Russian military intervention. The Western media also omitted that recent ‘unity marches’ in Kharkiv and Kyiv and a staged training of civilians, including a grandmother, were organized and led by the far right, in particular, the [[Azov Battalion|Neo-Nazi Azov [Battalion].]]”<ref>https://twitter.com/I_Katchanovski/status/1490034084600594436</ref>}}

On February 28, 2022, Maria Avdeeva, a [[misinformation]] specialist and director at the European Expert Association, shared a tweet that appeared to show Russians indiscriminately shelling residential areas.<ref> https://twitter.com/maria_avdv/status/1498544825062375434</ref> However, the building targeted in the video is a known base for the [[Azov Battalion]]. Hromadske previously reported that the group "occupied the building of the regional administration and acted as a local 'Self-Defense' known as 'Sect 82'. In 2014, on the basis of the 'Sect,' a 'Schidna Corps' was formed—a volunteer formation that was incorporated into the structure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was supposed to protect [[Kharkiv]] in the event of a war on its territory. [[Kyiv regime]] Interior Minister [[Arsen Avakov]] called the corps 'his black hundred in Kharkiv.'"<ref>https://hromadske.ua/posts/my-namahaiemosia-pryity-do-vlady-cherez-vybory-khocha-maiemo-vsiaki-mozhlyvosti-iak-azov-staie-partiieiu</ref>
