Talk:The Nation (Thailand)

Satirical Reaction
I added a {{cite news reference to Not The Nation's 'About' and quoted it in full. I suggest changing the section heading to Not The Nation as it appears this is all that's known about it. Though some day it may be possible to do an article similar to the one on The Onion, in the meanwhile, we could redirect Not The Nation to this article's section. If the section heading is changed, then the wikilink at Cambodian–Thai border dispute §Reaction §§Satirical should be changed accordingly.--Pawyilee (talk) 10:19, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

A Newspaper with a Right Wing, Royalist, Nationalist Bias
Seems to me a lot more could be added to this wiki. There's practically more on the satirical parody site than the real site. It's good that the page identifies that the paper was very much slanted towards attacking Thaksin. Looking into the deeper story of why might reveal the fascist royalist reasons for that. before the present coup and into the first years, the Nation held its attitude but with the arrest of Pravit Rojanaphruk, one of its senior reporters who wasn't pro-coup, the newspaper seemed to snap out of their hardcore nationalistic values. Still, because of its choices many readers have turned away from the Nation, permanently it seems. The story of Pravit should also be on this page as well as more on why the paper has such a slant in its reporting.

Update on The Nation?
What is The Nation's coverage like now in terms of the military dictatorship?[1] Article says "The acquisition by T News", but no date in wikipedia article ... going to add "2018" (source: the khaosodenglish ref in article). Latest news about Nation's opinion/filter seems to be from 2019 when apparently acquired by T News. Would like the Lead section to include short summary of Editorial line section (opinion page welcoming the 2014 coup and military rule and firing left-of-center journalist Pravit Rojanaphruk) and hopefully what the paper's treatment of the military dictatorship is.
