CAMERA prompts correction of Jerusalem Post headline which erroneously stated: "Israel Advancing Plans for 4X More Settlements Than Last Year." Plans concern new residential units within existing settlements, not new settlements. After contact from CAMERA, NPR corrects a report which wrongly claimed that Israel annexed the West Bank after the 1967 Six-Day War.
The correction was published after a New York Times editorial wrongly claimed the United States has consistently held Israeli settlements to be "illegal." 
After CAMERA alerted a CNN anchor about her erroneous reference to Israel's approvals of "new settlements" in the West Bank, she makes clear that no new settlements have been built there for nearly two decades. "Here and Now," produced by NPR and WBUR, is the latest to correct the erroneous claim that Israeli plans to build thousands of "new settlements." Plans are for new homes in existing settlements, not for new settlements. In record time, ABC (Australia) corrects a headline: Israel's controversial "normalization law" would affect 4,000 residential units, not 4,000 outposts. 
After communication with CAMERA, the NYT corrected a headline that had erroneously referred to Israel building "more settlements." Thanks to CAMERA's efforts, ABC, Times of London, the AP, and now the Times of Israel have corrected the erroneous claim that the U.S. has viewed Israeli settlements as illegal .
UKMW prompted the Times of London to publish a correction noting that the US does not dub settlements "illegal," although it does call them "illegitimate" or unhelpful. For the second time in less than one month, CAMERA prompts an ABC correction on the erroneous claim that "the United States considers Jewish settlements illegal."
