CNN's Matthew Chance argues that by launching strikes against Iran, Israel is embroiling itself in an unwinnable war with no clear end. Echoing talking points of American critics of past American wars, he repeatedly lamented Israel’s supposed lack of an “exit strategy,” concluding that “Israelis face yet another grinding, dangerous war of attrition, with no time limits and no clear end.” But this analysis isn’t merely flawed—it actively misleads CNN’s audience by erasing critical context.
A CNN morning update on the Israel-Iran War, entitled “Israel and Iran traded another overnight barrage of strikes. Here’s the latest,” applies a curious double standard when it comes to casualties.
As tensions escalate between Iran and Israel, CAMERA Senior Analyst David Litman joined India’s WION News to offer expert insight into the regional and global implications. In two video clips, he addresses the stakes for Israel, the role of proxy groups, and the international response.
At CAMERA, we are closely monitoring the recent developments in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. We stand committed to promoting accurate and fair media coverage during these rapidly evolving events. Our thoughts remain with all those affected by the situation, and we urge news outlets and the public alike to seek truth and context in their reporting.
After CNN falsely reported last June that famine in the Gaza Strip is "imminent," the network drops a new chapter in its unfolding Gaza famine fable: "famine worsens."
The false accusation of genocide is made for one reason: to attempt to pressure Israel to end the war without removing Hamas from power, so that the terror organization can rebuild and attack Israel again, as it has pledged to do and as history shows it has a record of doing.
Calling a terror operative a journalist doesn’t make him one, CAMERA's Tamar Sternthal writes in The Algemeiner. The AP’s rough schooling in this lesson began with a mundane correspondence, progressed to the most devastating slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust, and continued with a hugely embarrassing court case.
On Israel's Memorial Day, CAMERA prompts corrections at dozens of McClatchy news sites after a United Press International wire service article falsely claimed that Israel had started war with Hamas in October 2023.
