Super well written and researched article, as usual 🙂. The NYT lost a ton of credibility for me when they walked back their story confirming that the IDF had bombed a hospital, leading to the deaths of scores of Palestinian children.
Are you going to revisit this commentary in light of the recent report by the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict, Ms. Pramila Patten, that found reasonable evidence for rapes, including gang rapes, having occurred on multiple locations on October 7th?
A Precondition of Doing Violence To Any Group Of People Or Nation Is to Make Them Less Than Human
“Our modern political establishments, by influencing public opinion through the media, create the notion of ‘other’ – the modern word for ‘enemy’. It is through this concept of ‘difference’ that they seek to provide a moral justification for harming or oppressing fellow human beings.”
Thank you for succinctly reporting on the importance of journalistic integrity. 🙏🏽 more of this please.

thank you it’s rage-provoking to see so many media outlets fail at covering this and the consequences it has on the lives of thousands.

Thank you for reporting on the perpetuation of prejudice and the harm it engenders.
I am reminded of Rajko Radovanovic and his statement included as part of his work painted on the side of a building in New Orleans - https://www.flickr.com/photos/neworleanslady/2993761581;
