Earlier, NBC's Lawahez Jabari incorrectly reported that there is just one West Bank luxury hotel. When it comes to the much more complex and important subject of Palestinian minors in Israel jails, she's in way over her head. 
NBC’s Nightly News "Inside Gaza" report, containing misinformation and omitting key information, gave short shrift to Israel’s perspective regarding the raid on the Turkish ship Mavi Marmara, part of the Gaza-bound six-ship cargo flotilla. 
NBC Chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel likened the killing of Neda Agha-Soltani to the discredited Muhammad al-Dura story and, when challenged to correct the false analogy, network news president Steve Capus ignored the issue completely and cited the numerous journalistic awards of his reporter. 
The famed anchor apparently knows little about either Buchenwald or the Arab-Israeli conflict -- because he thinks they're similar! 
With the release of his new book, Jimmy Carter hits the television studios again, introducing new falsehoods about Israel and Hamas. 
Damaging misinformation is being conveyed about Israel not just in news stories, but in popular culture items as well, such as Oprah and Vogue magazines, and now a popular NBC police drama. All too often journalists sitting across the table from Arab leaders do their utmost to avoid asking any tough questions, lest they give "offense" to people clearly unused to being challenged.

NBC's Tom Brokaw, for example, in a recent interview asked the tough questions of Jordan's King Abdullah. Why did they end up on the cutting room floor?
In an otherwise moving piece, NBC Nightly News' August 3, 2003 broadcast inappropriately politicized actor Christopher Reeve's recent trip to Israel. Reeve, a quadriplegic, visited Israel to promote his cause — stem cell research. But NBC marred the report by inserting unrelated references to the Arab-Israeli conflict, always to Israel's detriment.
