After reporting the fiction of "Israel's blanket blockade of food" entering Gaza, The New York Times' correction conceals the huge quantity of food which has entered the territory, citing "some trucks" as opposed to an actual sum.
Times of Israel corrects after misidentifying Abdallah Aljamal, a Gaza resident who held three Israeli hostages, as a contributor at Palestine Chronicle. In fact, as correspondent, he had a more significant role at the U.S.-based pro-Hamas outlet.
In dozens of stories, AP committed one of the most egregious journalistic transgressions: misattributing a false quote to a source. Tamar Sternthal explains in Times of Israel how a bogus ICJ quote alleging “plausible risk of genocide” in Gaza found its way into AP reporting, and how CAMERA put an end to it.
In this second correction of an English-language mistranslation this week, Haaretz clarifies in print and online that an Israeli airstrike did not hit the Rafah tent encampment where secondary explosions started a deadly fire.
"Gaza strikes back at Israel after enduring months of war" was the United Press International headline whose relationship to reality mirrors that of George Lucas' "The Empire Strikes Back" science fiction favorite.
CAMERA prompts correction after Haaretz erroneously reported in English (and not Hebrew) that Israel closed the Rafah Crossing. Egypt, not Israel, closed the Gaza-Egypt crossing.
CAMERA prompts correction of a Los Angeles Times article which inaccurately reported that "Hamas had accepted terms of a cease-fire." As the U.S. State Department made explicitly clear: "Hamas did not accept a ceasefire proposal."
Two days after UPI’s Adam Schrader completely ignored that Hamas fired rockets towards Kerem Shalom even as he blamed Israel exclusively for the humanitarian crises facing Gazans, CAMERA prompts the news agency to cover the terror organization’s deadly attack on the crossing for the first time.
Reuters "adds context" about Hamas' massive Oct. 7 attacks to a Facebook post which cites "the war Israel launched against Hamas." While the inclusion of Hamas' Oct. 7 atrocities is certainly a significant improvement, it should be noted that Israel didn’t “launch” a war, Hamas did.
UPDATE: Reuters corrects a video which falsely reported that Israel has ordered the evacuation of over one million Palestinians in Rafah southward. Any evacuation of Palestinians in Rafah further south would mean evacuation into Egypt, and Israel has absolutely not ordered the evacuation of Palestinians onto Egyptian territory.
