Israel has been using the distraction of the Gaza invasion to seize land in the occupied West Bank and attack Palestinians. The New York Times is ignoring the story.

    “Overall, we rate Mondoweiss as Left Biased and Questionable due to the blending of opinion with news, the promotion of pro-Palestinian and anti-zionist propaganda, occasional reliance on poor sources, and hate group designation by third-party pro-Israel advocates. (D. Van Zandt 3/4/2017) Updated (12/07/2023)“

    Gonna be honest here, kinda disappointed in mediabiasfactcheck for using the “hate group designation by third-party pro-Israel advocates“ as a measure of credibility while also stating they don’t fact check this source. Brings down my view of them which sucks cause I liked them.

    I appreciate Darkthoughts for linking the credibility measure for discussion though. More posts need that.

      Maybe we can’t rely on organisations founded by and for white americans to properly report on the credibility of people who are being bombed by white Americans and their allies.

      It’s also for “mixing opinion with news” as if it’s not immediately obvious which is which. Also I’d like to see the “anti-Zionist propaganda”.
