Video: The Guardian’s antisemitism hypocrisy
The Guardian says antisemitism must be confronted, yet repeatedly platforms voices and narratives that fuel hostility toward the Jewish people and the Jewish state. From amplifying extremist rhetoric to normalizing inflammatory smears against Israel immediately after October 7, the paper’s editorial choices reveal a glaring contradiction at the heart of modern media discourse. You cannot claim to oppose antisemitism while mainstreaming false narratives that drive it.

An In-Depth Critique: Kristof’s ‘Sexual Violence’ Story is the Nadir of Journalism
The New York Times has published a lot of biased journalism over the years. We at CAMERA know this plenty well. But the egregiousness of Kristof’s column shocks even us. Retracting it is necessary, but far from sufficient. Kristof has demonstrated he has no business being employed in the world of journalism. His editors have similarly demonstrated their complete lack of fitness for their roles.
CAMERA Statement: Grave Issues in Kristof’s Sexual Assault Column
Any credible allegations of abuse should be investigated. At the same time, Kristof’s column clearly fails to meet the standards of ethical journalism.
