Accuracy and accountability are among the most important tenets of journalism. In combination, they mean media organizations are expected to publish or broadcast forthright corrections after sharing inaccurate information. The following corrections are among the many prompted by CAMERA’s communication with reporters and editors.
Times of London editors promptly upheld our complaint and amended an article that initially included false information about former Israeli minister Gadi Eisenkot
UPDATED: After communications with CAMERA, the Washington Post corrected after publishing a doctored quote attributed to President Trump. The fake quote supported their narrative of blaming Israel for complicating Trump's efforts to make peace with Iran.
Financial Times editors upheld a complaint from CAMERA, and amended an article falsely claiming that “Almost all buildings in Gaza have been destroyed by two years of Israeli bombardment."
Times of Israel deletes an Instagram post which misidentified footage of a pro-Hamas gathering as a protest against the terror organization which rules the coastal enclave.
Dalal Saoud, reporting from Lebanon for United Press International, "opened a support front" — to borrow from her own ambiguous terminology for Hezbollah's unprovoked rocket attacks on Israel — on behalf of the Iranian proxy.
The Wrap editors agreed that a report detailing U.N. accusations charging Israel of sexual violence was remiss not to note the Jewish state's denial and commendably acted to add the Jewish state's missing information.
Attributing sinister, ulterior motives to an entire group should be in the realm of bigots, not of journalists. Yet, seven local newspapers owned by Lee Enterprises apparently thought otherwise when publishing a false and prejudicial definition of "Zionism."
UPDATED: In both English and Arabic, Reuters improves an article which completely omitted the pro-terror and bigoted expressions of extremist media personalities Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur, adding examples of their extremist statements.
Following our complaint to the Guardian, editors amended an article falsely claiming that Mahmoud Khalil, the extremist anti-Israel activist who justified the Oct. 7 massacre, was born in 'Palestine'.
