I think specific examples would help this back on track. We have a grandparent comment and others in the thread supporting negative media narratives about KSA culture. We have a parent comment about the coverage of US business involvement with KSA and a few commenters supported that with their recollections of the media narrative around conducting business with KSA, not even getting into cultural or military problems.

It’s interesting if your media diet has changed favorably for either KSA culture, military, or business connections. Maybe the career arc of Rex Tillerson, or the investiture arc of Jared Kushner have been sculpted by some outlets and not others.
