Talk:Bangkok Post

message: As can be seen over at Talk:Chengdu_J-20#Fifth_best_fighter_in_the_world, the Post is not a reliable source for statements from the Thai military so there should be no problem if I just remove all such refs from all articles, no? Hcobb (talk) 22:38, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not a reliable source on the Thai military. 

message: Daniel McGilvary and Laos Mission cite the unrelated Bangkok Times Press as a source. Editors interested in this article might be interested in starting one for the Times. Twentieth century impressions of Siam  (1908) chapter THE PRESS, p.293ff, gives the history of the Times and others extant in the late 19th and early 20th century. --Pawyilee (talk) 05:59, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

message: It should be noted that the Bangkok Post has shown apathy to obvious anti-red shirt propaganda. As you can see in today's Bangkok Post story which has pictures of this propaganda. The link is below. If you notice you will see that the arresting officers in the story attached red flags to a table holding supposed evidence of a crime. The title of the story is "Explosives, fire-arms seized at red shirt house' but the main page has another similar title. The story itself does not question the evidence or do any inquiry into the crime. Some might say the main title with single quotes around 'A red cache' suggests that the Bangkok Post questions this find but there is no followup in the actual article.

But this is not the first time this has happened. The famous 'Men in Black' story also had soldiers who dressed suspects in black and attached red armbands to brainwash the people into seeing things the way they did. Those men were put on the front page of the Bangkok Post and also the article page of the story. There was some criticism at that time as well. But this scenario continues at the Bangkok Post. There was criticism from one staff member but the abuse obviously never ended.

Again the Bangkok Post releases a 'propaganda' photo of the authtorities of a table draped in red with weapons on top. Red is not the only color that could be used to cover the table. http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/politics/1218289/extradition-sought-for-red-shirt-leader 
This page on the Bangkok Post needs to have more detail about the lack of journalistic objectivity of this newspaper or its obvious position as a tool to promote the 'anti-red shirt' propaganda. NaturalEquality (talk) 09:14, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Support of 'anti-red shirt' propaganda. 

message: It should be clear in the article that the Bangkok Post follows the censoring of news by the military-royalist regimes in power and gives more than necessary support for the royal family. In the decades of its existence it has been part of the problem in Thailand in terms of the propaganda pushed on locals and foreigners. Although it has at times had some critical members on its staff, most have faced regular political pressure. Another not is the Bangkok Post's regular editing of the comments section, not based on Thai laws, but based on the screening of obviously biased staffers. Although the Bangkok Post doesn't compare to the Nation newspaper in terms of its bias, the Bangkok Post has not historically been a guardian of the truth in Thailand.  203.131.210.82 (talk) 23:31, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
