It is time we stopped conflating propaganda operatives with journalists. If we are going to call out Israel for “attacking the press,” let’s make sure it is actually the press we are talking about.
Are things not looking up now that Trump is back. With your secret service being so good, can you not name and shame these Pro Palestinian journalists employed by the BBC and CNN. I am horrified by the violence in Amsterdam. My heart bleeds for your country. I'm a pensioner so cannot give money, but you are in my thoughts and prayers every day. God bless.
You did not ask for my advice but here it is. To amplify this critical message, post a link to your article on X and tag Rubio, Stefanik, Huckabee and every Republican hawk on X. Give them the story and keep pushing it to them and their staff. Let them raise this and use the Trump administration for something positive. He’s supposed to be the protector of Israel. Let his team enter the fight on propaganda.
The us just endured a election campaign where the msm openly campaigned for one side. The uk is openly supporting an islamist agenda, both in government and on the bbc etc. Yes, al jazeera is entirely a propaganda tool, but is the msm in the west any different?The rot is so deep.
This is critical information, and it's infuriating how the media runs the sort of headlines you cite 'Israel attacking journalists' without any context or discussion of who these journalists are or what circumstances led them to be attacked. Unfortunately, I'm not optimistic about your headline. I doubt this will be the last time. . .
No, the media is not reporting the truth of the Journalists who have been killed. Israel's murders of over 140 Journalists in Palestine is very well documented- names, dates, what they were reporting, and how they were killed.
Legacy media is infested with members of the Free Palestine cult, managed by spineless progressives who are terrified to call them on their propaganda. If you want actual news of the war kill your NYT and WaPo subscription and get one for the Times of Israel.
If you want real reporting from Israel,read Haaretz. And why do you say to "kill" NYT anb WaPo subscriptions? Are you a terrorist who supports murdering journalists???
It is all over the world, this is the final battle of evil and good . It has been going on for a long time. Now it is actual with real global revolution, global revolution. It has been happening after 1960s with global push trying to minimise normal family ties and dynamics. That way they try to break societies and their function. They are doing that little by little. The far-left agenda has always been global domination. They have occupied universities with far-left teachers and and all the important media institutions with workers who are devoted to global domination with purpose to destroy the Bible built systems. It is not ONLY journalists, it is much wider agenda. NOW the far-left see a good opportunity to destroy Israel with this unholy agenda with Muslim Jihad together. The far-left doesn’t understand that Islam is a political movement for conquer the whole world under Sharia law dressed as a religion and to establish one huge global Jihad Qaliphate with Jerusalem as capital. Islam is NOT in hurry, they have struggled with Jews over 1400 years. I am waiting for HASHEM to make Miracles happen in near future. The Third Temple and the Kingdom of Israel ( Davidic Dynasty) are eternal and Sanhedrin will be also in the Third Temple on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem Very Soon. The final peace will come only after Shechinah is dwelling in the Third Temple on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem Very Soon Baruch HaShem!
I'm not into the religious part of your argument, but I agree regarding the seriousness of the Islamist threat. It is very real and the US better wake up quick.
The Israel threat, you mean. Read the FBI's "Dancing Israeli's" report after 9/11 where members of Israel's Urban Moving Systems dressed as Arabs and said "the Palestinians are your problem." The US killed millions of Arabs in response to the false flag of 9/11.
I'm not surprised that you haven't heard of this. Many people don't know. It's not like the Israeli-controlled press in the United States would ever report it. But the FBI report with the information on how the "Dancing Israelis" were arrested after 9/11, who told police that the Palestinians were their problem, and had explosives residue in their van, is available for public view and I encourage you to familiarize yourself with it. https://archive.org/details/FBIandPoliceReportUrbanMoving/Dancing-Israelis-Police-Report/
Well, only one of the files mentions five Israelis detained as they might have some information regarding the Twin Towers. This is highly inconclusive.
Joshua, you essay focuses on how the media has been conflating propaganda operatives with journalists but by using the word conflate, I think you are giving the media too much credit as journalists.
Does Mainstream media conflate military deaths with civilian deaths ? Does it conflate hospitals with Hamas command centers?
In other words, I dont think its an oversight or a case of Journalists not going deeper for accuracy. I think this is done because this is their agenda, this is their bias, this is exactly what the intent is. They want Israel to be the villain and report it that way until we point out the lie and then they might correct it knowing the damage has been done.
The question is why are old bastions of journalism like the NY Times, The Washington Post, the BBC, CNN et al. unified in doing this?
For me the answer is obvious .... all of what used to be true journalism has evolved into outlets of Progressive Liberalism and in many cases Marxism. They don't only showcase Israel in the worst light, they also showcase Americana and Western culture in the worst light. Police brutality, Illegal immigration, critical Race Theory and the rest of it become their storylines and what they promote.
It's no wonder the trust in the media is at an all time low.
This is so sad, but I fear, true. There is nothing better than western Enlightenment values. Global marxist shmarxist propaganda and all the rest of it, is just dangerous and dumb.
There has been a great deal of backlash recently so hopefully things will change. Trumps win was a decisive blow to the progressives and maybe it will serve as a wake up call to the medial.
An important topic to write about. Great job. Regarding the number of Palestinian casualties, just a day or two ago I heard someone say "40,000". It seems to me they've been saying that number for at least 6-8 months. Am I wrong? Would love someone to comment. It just indicates to me even more how untrue the journalism is. No one has commented on this. Just wondering.
I've wondered this myself. Astonishing that, after the 40,000 total was allegedly met, no one else died. And it's stated as fact, not something made up by Hamas that needs investigation.
Stop repeating yourself to these ass holes. Israel is attacking terrorists posing as journalists, has proven it with documents , and despite that the morons don’t care about the truth.
So let them go screw themselves and let the Israelis do what they do.
Of course we know your strategy to call everyone and anyone who is opposed to Israel's Genocide a "terrorist," or "Hamas Support Network," or "antisemetic."
"genuine journalists who do operate in places like Israel — those who abide by professional ethics and maintain objectivity — are, ironically, free to work [in Israel] without issue"
Having watched the news on France24, DW News, PBS, and the CBC, it is evident that all of their reporting on the Middle East is presented with little to no context, employs charged language, interview only those who follow the station's position on the conflicts. This includes all the journalists reporting from Israel, like Margaret Wente and Leila Molana-Allen to name but two.
Call me an old cynic, but having worked in the print media field, it became apparent a long time ago that despite writers and editors swearing they follow the code of journalistic ethics, this self-promotion is mere PR. In actual practice, there are many ways to shape a story to support a bias, just a few of which were enumerated in the above paragraph. The only immediate antidote to this toxicity is to personally exercise Critical Thinking and fact check, fact check, fact check.
P. S. The banner "Israel/Rothchild" reveals a lot about your personal convictions, as does your subscription to the conspiracy theory that COVID vaccinations are intended to kill or at least control the population.
And I don't think you should be allowed to commit mass murder whether you consider people to be "Hamas" or not. Did you approve of what Nazi Germany did to Jews?
Yeah, vaccines kill too. I stand by that as well. Do you deny that the Rothschilds played a major role in the creation of Israel or something? I thought it was something that you were proud of? Do you now denounce the Rothschilds? I bet you will not dare.
"the Rothschilds played a major role in the creation of Israel
"And your evidence is???
Seems like Jews really put your knickers in a twist. Good idea to get down on your knees every night before bed and thank the Powers That Be you aren't one of them.

Nope. But journalists are attacking Israel, especially Al-Jazeera clown News!

"at least two of whom were known Mossad operatives." So tell me Robin, why were Mossad agents working for a moving company? Why did they have explosives residue in their van? How did they know when and where to pose for pictures as the windows were blown out of the Twin Towers? https://mindseyemag.com/magazine/the-dancing-israelis-fbi-docs-shed-light-on-apparent-mossad-foreknowledge-of-9-11-attacks/

So everyone is Hamas and Israel is not conducting Genocide. You're lying.
This estimate was over 118,000. Why do you deny what Israel is doing?

Israel is assassinating journalists in Palestine as the Disgrace to the United States, Anthony Blinkin, hold press conferences in Israel.

Claims based on sound logic and verifiable evidence tend to be more reliable than sweeping generalizations based on personal beliefs and prejudices.
Always a good idea to do some fact checking:

Get lost troll.
Are you seriously suggesting that every journalist killed by Israel was an ‘operative’ or a propagandist? That claim is absolutely preposterous.
Israel kills journalists because they don't want the truth to be reported.
