Two Israeli children, murdered in Hamas captivity. A Palestinian mother and a 14-year-old boy, reported killed by Israeli forces. The BBC used different language to describe their deaths, and we’d just like to know why. When Shiri Bibas and her sons, Ariel and Kfir, were returned to Israel in coffins, the BBC described them as having “died in captivity.” Yet in separate reporting on Palestinian deaths, it used the word “killed” while relying on accounts whose details had not been independently verified. @jessisajew has more:

ABC’s recent coverage of Gaza’s Kamal Adwan hospital framed the situation as a simple "he-said, she-said," completely ignoring years of documented evidence, Hamas’s own filmed admissions, and recent footage showing the facility being used as a terror base. Why is a major news outlet providing cover for Hamas and erasing these facts from its reporting? Read the full breakdown and tell us what you think in the comments. camera.org/article/abc-outri…

Watch CAMERA UK's @adamlevick expose the "halo effect": how mainstream media outlets fail to vet Hamas-tied NGOs like @EuroMedHR because their names contain the words "human rights." "You put the word 'human rights' and journalists ... suspend all disbelief." @NGOmonitor @olga_deutsch

In a country that has seen rampant antisemitic attacks, historical and October 7th revisionism, British broadcasters have a duty not to use passive constructions that obfuscate responsibility. They also have a duty not to platform, without due diligence checks, those on the “Palestinian side” who openly support and eulogise the very terrorist groups who committed the October 7th atrocities. If Sky News obsessively coalesces around “the other side” narrative and offers Jewish voices no reprieve, must we conclude that it was never on the side of massacred Jews at all? camera.org/article/always-th…

Israel-hating Navi Pillay was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this year. Pillay has a long, checkered past through her involvement with the United Nations, but insofar as matters related to Israel are concerned, she is infamous for being part of the three-person Commission that claimed Israel’s conduct in Gaza amounted to genocide. One of her co-commissioners, Chris Sidoti, made some stunning admissions during a recent debate in Australia, with military expert Dr. Brian Cox, on whether Israel committed genocide in Gaza. Among them, he admitted that the Commission had not verified a statistic it cited in its report declaring a genocide, from the @guardian which was that 83% of those killed in Gaza were civilians. This was in stark contrast to Pillay’s statement, as reported by @JNS_org, that “every fact was verified” by the Commission.

"In a recent religious studies class at Kenyon College, a discussion about American Jews moving to Israel turned unexpectedly to Israel’s role in the Middle East. One student used the conversation to argue that “Israel is always the aggressor in the Middle East, and if Israel did not exist, there simply would be no conflict.” I expected my professor to challenge such a sweeping historical claim, but he did not, and the discussion moved on. For a moment I considered speaking myself, but because I was caught off guard and worried about how challenging this broadly accepted argument might affect my standing in the class, I stayed quiet too. That moment stuck with me, not only because of what was said, but because such a claim could pass so easily without challenge." writes CAMERA Fellow Kevin McCarthy.

Some of the biggest names in international media once again struggled to put Israeli victims at the centre of their own story. The @AP highlighted satellite images of Gaza, while @Reuters posted a live view of Gaza City on the anniversary itself. The @nytimes published limited coverage focused on October 7, used terms such as “gunmen” and “militants” for the terrorists who invaded Israel, and described hostages murdered in captivity as having “died.” The anniversary should have been an opportunity to remember the approximately 1,200 people murdered, the hundreds taken hostage, and the lasting trauma inflicted on Israeli society and Jewish communities worldwide. @jessisajew has the breakdown:

Media outlets routinely strip Palestinians of moral agency, framing them solely as victims. As @adamlevick points out during a recent sit-down with @NGOmonitor's @olga_deutsch, this paternalistic framing isn't just bad journalism—it's both racist and antisemitic.

CNN's Christiane Amanpour managed to make a UN official look like the reasonable one. "In today's day and age, that takes some doing," @jessisajew says:

When Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed claimed Israel "is not actually our friend," his logic treated Iran like a partner while ditching a key ally. ABC failed to explain why El-Sayed's statement was so off the mark. CAMERA's @RealAaronGoren corrects the record. "If we keep with his statement that Israel is getting the U.S. into fights with other so-called friends, then by that logic Abdul El-Sayed is calling Iran a friend of the United States," Goren writes. "This is a perverse misrepresentation of the United States’ relationship with the clerical, radical regime in Tehran that regularly chants 'Death to America.'" 🔗: camera.org/article/abc-shoul…

"I'm sorry it offends you when I point out you're a tool of the Iranian regime," @JimHansonDC told Trita Parsi to his face during a recent Piers Morgan Uncensored appearance. As CAMERA's @RealAaronGoren has observed, @tparsi has peddled regime talking points for decades. So why do mainstream outlets like @ABC keep platforming him as a neutral "expert" without disclosing his record?
