Last week, visitors located in various Israeli communities found that according to the New York Times' weather feature they were located in "Palestine." CAMERA prompted improvement so that "Jerusalem, Palestine," for instance, no longer appears, but users still shouldn't expect accurate weather information.
The anti-Israel indoctrination of high school students in Newton, Massachusetts continues. A teacher inculcates students with a deeply flawed history of the Arab-Israeli conflict in a senior elective class, while the superintendent assures parents that all is well.
CAMERA previously discussed the disinformation campaign by self-promoting CNN commentator and Temple University professor Marc Lamont Hill. The Investigative Project on Terrorism provides new evidence that Lamont Hill has now progressed from justifying terrorism to promoting it.
One of the main obstacles to previous peace-making efforts in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has been the issue of dividing Jerusalem. There is no doubt that these competing demands and claims will be difficult to reconcile. It is made all the more difficult by a media that errs or misleads on the topic. This backgrounder addresses common media misrepresentations regarding Jerusalem.
Settlements established by Israel in territories captured in the 1967 war have become a matter of great controversy among pro- and anti-settlement advocates who debate the legality of such communities.
Following statements by PA Justice Minister Freih Abu Meddein and by Chairman Yasir Arafat that Palestinians found to have sold land to Jews will face the death penalty, at least 4 Palestinian land dealers said to have been involved in such sales were murdered.
Falling into an antisemitic trope, AP fails to amend after whitewashing the Saudi anti-Jewish bigotry hurled at American Rabbi Abraham Cooper, chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, as "sensitivity" due to Israel's war against Hamas.
Reuters misleadingly reported March 13 that "Hezbollah launched rockets at Israel in October in support of Hamas," as if the terror organization's incessant attacks hadn't continued up until that very same morning.
Israel has been assailed for not getting aid to Gazans. Policymakers have picked up on this narrative, pushed by the mainstream press. But as CAMERA notes, it is deeply misleading.
Nearly every day, AP religiously recounts with muezzin-like regularity Hamas' latest figures for Palestinian casaulties. Meanwhile, the news agency delays and discredits when it comes to IDF-supplied data on Hamas fatalities. Sometimes updates happen only after CAMERA's nudging, resulting in underreporting of Hamas fatalities.
The press has failed to fully note the extent to which Hezbollah controls Lebanon. Indeed, as CAMERA tells Providence Magazine, the Lebanese Armed Forces have been caught cooperating with the terror group. This bodes poorly for the next Israel-Hezbollah War.
CAMERA prompts the removal of a false story by UPI's Adam Schrader from more than 20 McClatchy news sites two days after UPI itself had commendably corrected the fallacious report that a New Jersey synagogue was selling 'Palestinian land' against the backdrop of so-called 'genocide.'
If CNN can’t be relied upon to produce an accurate picture of the facts, or to give the proper analysis of those facts, then can CNN be relied upon as a serious journalistic entity at all?
There they go again. The Washington Post can't quit using Palestinian babies as props in their propaganda war against Israel. A recent Post news story blaming Israel for dangers faced by Palestinian babies leaving Gaza didn't even mention Hamas.
