Silwan Distortions in the Israeli Press
Israeli newspapers and online news sites were kept busy this past Friday (Oct. 8, 2010) discussing an incident where two rock-throwing Palestinian youths were stuck by a car driven by David Be'eri (Davida'leh), the chairman of the Elad association. Some Israeli media outlets were so eager to demonize the Elad leader and indeed Elad in general that they forgot to practice good journalism.
