Dana Bash's interview with Brad Lander exposed a wave of media failures, from misrepresenting Raphael Lemkin’s genocide legacy to shockingly redefining Holocaust-era "kapos."

Post-Oct. 7, one would have at least hoped that there would be some soul-searching among supporters of the Palestinian cause and a reaction along the lines of “this is not how we imagined Palestinian resistance” or a “not in my name” campaign.
