Study of New York Times Coverage Severely Flawed
A "study" by an anti-Israel group claims that New York Times coverage is anti-Palestinian. A closer look proves this claim, along with the pseudoscientific study which produced it, is absurd.

Public Health News Turns to ISM Activist for Article on Palestinian Health
“Public Health News” is a British weekly print and online journal distributed free of charge to British public health
professionals, with a circulation of over 14,000. A collaborative project of such eminent professional
organizations as the Royal Institute of Public Health, the Chartered Institute
of Environmental Health, the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health, the
Faculty of Public Health, and others, it provides news and features on the
latest issues in this medically-related field. It is puzzling and disturbing that such a publication would turn – not
to a health professional – but to an anti-Israel activist for an article
on health issues in the West Bank and Gaza. The author, Sarah Irving, is part
of the notorious International Solidarity Movement, a group that justifies
terrorism and supports “armed struggle” against Israel.
Whitewashing ISM
Members of the pro-Palestinian group openly condone terrorism, but to many journalists they are "peace activists."
The Cape Cod Times Whitewashes the ISM
The Cape Cod Times whitewashes the pro-Palestinian International Solidarity Movement (ISM) in its July 5, 2004 feature "Mideast sojourn inspires activist" by Karen Jeffrey. The article lionizes the group and one of its activists, Neal Ahern. While the piece notes that a member of the Canadian Parliament nominated the organization for a Nobel Peace Prize, it does not include a single mention of the many controversial statements or actions of ISM and its members.

Columns marking the one-year anniversary of the death of Rachel Corrie ignored or minimized the role of International Solidarity Movement, which recruited Corrie to be a "human shield" in Gaza.
