In their dubbed version of the Apple TV+ show, it turns out the Ukrainian Azov regiment destroyed Mariupol and shot civilians in the street instead of the Russian invaders.

I don't expect Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston ever expected their show to be manipulated by Russian pirates but that's just how they do things in Russia when unpleasant references show up in pop culture. Just rewrite or dub however you want your version of reality to appear and it's done.

Russian TV pirates are parroting and pushing Russian state propaganda wherever they can.

A case in point was a pirated episode of the American TV show, “The Morning Show.”

Apple TV+ is one of the few Western media outlets that continues to operate in Russia despite Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022.

Apple’s third season of “The Morning Show,” starring Jennifer Anniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carrell has content pertaining to Russia’s war in Ukraine – but was not made available to Russia.

However, Russian pirates made copies of the season and did their own dubbing of dialogue.

In the fourth episode of season 3 of the show, one of the characters says “The Russians aren’t just bombing the city, they’re shooting civilians on the streets.”

But the "Rudub" studio, which makes a range of Western TV series available to Russian viewers, translated this as “Here they aren’t just bombing the city – the Azov Brigade is shooting civilians in the streets.”

Ukrainians destroyed their own city of Mariupol and massacred civilians in the streets, according to the Russians.
