Haaretz Amends After Grossly Overreporting Fatalities in Strike on Nasrallah

CAMERA prompts corrections in both English and Hebrew after Haaretz wrongly reported that Israeli defense officials had estimated that 300 were killed in the Israeli airstrike which targeted Hassan Nasrallah. In fact, an early Israeli estimated cited 300 casualties (not fatalities) and Lebanese officials cited six fatalities.

CAMERA Op-Ed: Who Was Hassan Nasrallah?

Another NPR Winter of Distortion

As sure as the calendar moves toward spring, National Public Radio stations turn to a fresh season of fund-raising. For listeners wondering about the status of the network's longstanding bias against Israel, a snapshot of coverage in early 2005 offers few signs of positive change. Instead, the tilt toward Arab positions continues. Sloppiness with factual precision is still commonplace.
