Same day reporting by CNN, Reuters, The Washington Post, and The New York Times framed the incident near Tell as a case of settler violence, while omitting key details. Because these mainstream media failed to do their jobs, it befell to CAMERA to investigate who the individuals involved in the incident were.
Have you read about: Michigan's history of political antisemitic harassment and intimidation; more proof that the Gaza famine never was; and Ireland's flying blind hatred of Jews?
NBC, CNN, and AP all committed the same blunder this week: sourcing their reports using testimony from both a Hamas-linked organization, and an infamous spokesman in Gaza who Israel alleges is an active member of Hamas' military wing. The kicker? They didn't inform the reader of his terror connections.
This week, NBC's Gabe Gutierrez insinuated that Israel was trying to "drag" the United States into a conflict it didn't want to be in. But President Trump's own statements, and U.S. military actions over the past few weeks, prove this to be false framing.
NBC's Chantal Da Silva and Matthew Mulligan paint a slanted, one-sided view of the ongoing ceasefire in Gaza, omitting key details surrounding sourcing and obligations under the truce that leave readers with more questions than answers.
NBC’s veteran international correspondent Keir Simmons should, at this point in his career, possess the tact and journalistic know-how to provide contextual, responsible reporting to viewers. This is especially true when reporting on an issue driving public discourse in the United States, such as the Islamic Republic of Iran. But Simmons’ July 15 report on NBC News Now failed in this regard.
Representative Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) launched an aggressive smear campaign against Israel after manufacturing an “incident” in Area C of the West Bank on July 8, 2026. But had Khanna coordinated with the IDF for smooth passage, there would have been no opportunity for a provocative publicity stunt. CAMERA breaks down the facts here.
NBC's Chantal Da Silva omits critical context and facts regarding the ceasefire in Gaza, painting Israel as the sole cause of the ceasefire’s complications in Gaza, and blurring Hamas’s responsibility for the continued conflict in the coastal enclave.
NBC's report from Jerusalem sounded like Palestinian Authority propaganda. From provocative, hyper-partisan language to asymmetric chronology and misinformation in service of a narrative, NBC's report created tensions rather than explaining them.
