BBC editor Jeremy Bowen admits mistakes were made on Gaza reporting that blamed Israel, but says he “doesn’t regret it.”
Media Bias
The upside-down worldview of today’s mainstream media.
What would the international mainstream media do without Israel? Everything would be much more boring.
What to do about Hamas-reported deaths in Gaza? CNN’s answer—launder the questionable figures through the Palestinian Authority.
His spokesperson released footage that the UK broadcaster chose to omit, including parts about Churchill, the BBC’s conduct and the criticism of Israel.
As foreign press decries rising Gaza death toll, CNN embarrassed when some of the dead rise during live broadcast.
The Galillee medical center “refuses to cooperate with media outlets that refuse to see Hamas as a terrorist organization.”
“Israel is at war. … We will in no way allow broadcasts that harm the security of the state,” said Israeli Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi.
Lies spread fast, especially in times of conflict. Israel is in a constant battle to present the truth. But is anyone listening?
Fake news has its place in politics, often to bring the truth to the media in a roundabout way, or the lie in a straightforward way.
