TA single missile strike in Ukraine becomes three incompatible public realities the moment it enters the UK, Ukrainian, and Russian media systems. Each selects different details, suppresses others, and absorbs the event into its own narrative architecture—civilian harm and legality in the UK, national survival and resilience in Ukraine, strategic necessity and justification in Russia. What begins as one visible surface rapidly fractures into three interpretive worlds, showing how conflict multiplies meaning rather than clarifying it, and how media systems construct the realities their societies come to inhabit.open.substack.com/pub/malmalhi/p…
