CAMERA’s Israel office yesterday prompted correction of multiple captions which misidentified deputy state prosecutor Liat Ben Ari, who is prosecutor in the corruption trial against Prime Minister Netanyahu, as a “plaintiff.” Samples of the erroneous captions follow:

In response to communication from CAMERA, Reuters commendably refiled the photographs with a corrected caption. The corrected captions state:
