Why not, "New blow to Gaza peace deal as Hamas still hasn't returned the body of hostage Ran Gvili," @IrishTimes.com?

Hamas hasn't fulfilled its obligations under the ceasefire agreement. How about holding the terrorist org accountable instead of solely blaming Israel?

Iranians are chanting “death to the dictator” and calling for the fall of the regime.
Major Western outlets have framed the uprising as economic unrest or barely covered it at all. That choice matters.

How Western Media Are Failing Iranians | HonestReporting
Western media downplay Iran’s latest anti-regime uprising, framing it as economic unrest while protests call for the Islamic Republic's fall.

New year, same ol' whitewashing of terrorism.

Instead of focusing on Marwan Barghouti's history of terrorism and incitement, @NPR's interview with his son practically turned the arch-terrorist into a saint.

This wasn't journalism, it was publicly-funded PR for a terrorist.

Zohran Mamdani has "demurred," has he, @washingtonpost.com?

Actually, he believes in the end of Israel as a Jewish state and supports the antisemitic BDS movement.

Rather than demurring on the question, he's made himself crystal clear. So stop whitewashing his hatred of Israel.

CNN claims women’s rights are sharply declining in Israel, but the data behind the story measures wartime conditions, not women’s rights, and ranks Israel below countries with legal discrimination against women. Read more below.

CNN’s Women’s Rights Narrative on Israel Collapses Under Misleading Data | HonestReporting
CNN’s claim that Israeli women’s rights are collapsing relies on a flawed global index, ignoring wartime context and distorting reality.

Hamas released a manifesto calling October 7 “glorious” and admitting it was meticulously planned. Mainstream media largely ignored it yet continues to quote Hamas run bodies as neutral sources even as Hamas openly spells out its terrorist ideology. honestreporting.com/hamas-publis...
Hamas Publishes New Manifesto Justifying October 7 and the Media Look Away | HonestReporting
Media ignored Hamas' new manifesto glorifying Oct. 7 as a planned “glorious” attack, therefore failing to expose its ideology and lies.

Note to Lara Marlowe: Israel never "carpet-bombed" Gaza; every air strike on terror infrastructure was targeted with precision weapons.

And humanitarian aid is not blocked; 4,200 aid trucks are entering Gaza weekly.

Just another day of lies and hyperbole from @IrishTimes.com.
January 1, 2026 at 10:30 AM
NPR insinuates that Israel wants needy Gazans to suffer. It wasn’t an arbitrary decision: Israel wants to prevent Hamas from continuing to manipulate aid groups to further its war aims.

This is why headline framing matters.

Israel vetting NGOs is not equivalent to blocking aid.
When media omit numbers, context, and the reality of terrorist exploitation of NGOs, they aren’t informing the public. They’re shaping a narrative. honestreporting.com/selective-re...
Selective Reporting: How Gaza Aid Vetting Became a Media Narrative | HonestReporting
Israel is suspending 37 aid organizations for not re-registering, preventing terrorists from infiltrating into humanitarian organizations.

When Hamas exploits aid networks, transparency from NGOs isn’t optional.
Oversight isn’t cruelty. It’s accountability.

Mark Weiss is reporting from Jerusalem. Yet, according to @IrishTimes.com, it's Tel Aviv making all the capital moves.

Forget recognition of Somaliland. How about ending the use of Tel Aviv as a metonym for Israel's government and start recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital?
December 31, 2025 at 7:51 AM
These were not "prisoner-exchange operations."

They were exchanges of Palestinian prisoners for Israeli hostages. They aren't the same.

Shame on ABC News (Australia) & France24 for republishing @AFP.com's immoral equivalence.

Ran Gvili was a special unit police officer killed defending civilians on Oct. 7. His body is still being held in Gaza in violation of the ceasefire, drawing limited media coverage and little international attention. Silence is a choice.

Selective silence isn’t neutrality. It’s complicity. The media’s refusal to cover sexual violence against Israelis reveals a disturbing double standard. honestreporting.com/selective-si...
Selective Silence: The Media’s Double Standard on Israeli Survivors of Sexual Violence | HonestReporting
Romi Gonen, a former Israeli hostage, experienced sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas, but the media did not report on her testimony.

"Israel hasn't upheld their end of the ceasefire agreement," according to SkyNews's Yousra Elbagir.

No mention whatsoever of Hezbollah's failure to disarm or its efforts to rebuild and reassert itself in southern Lebanon in breach of the ceasefire agreement.

According to the photographer's description, everything around this woman "reflected the dire situation that Palestinian families were enduring."

Except it didn't. And @theguardian.com even added the caveat at the bottom. But this was still one of their photos of the year. Shameful.
December 29, 2025 at 7:48 AM
Nearly one year after her release, Romi Gonen is speaking about sexual assaults she endured in Hamas captivity, including abuse by a man brought to provide medical care. What happened is documented. Whether it’s acknowledged is a choice.
December 28, 2025 at 8:00 PM
The scare quotes weren't enough for UPI. It had to deem it a "so-called" terror attack.

And with the perpetrator "allegedly" killing the Israeli victims, could UPI do anything more to whitewash terror?
December 28, 2025 at 11:53 AM
An order to respond forcefully. A curfew. Arrest raids.

All framed as "military retaliation."

Misrepresenting IDF counterterror operations as acts of vengeance is how France24 delegitimizes preventing terrorist attacks against Israeli Jews.
December 28, 2025 at 10:40 AM
Sickening from @news.sky.com. The released Palestinians were prisoners, not "hostages."

There is no moral equivalence between them and the kidnapped Israelis held by terrorists in the tunnels of Gaza.

If you can't tell the difference, you shouldn't call yourselves journalists.
December 28, 2025 at 9:28 AM
No, @thetimes.com. Tel Aviv did not decide to close the Israeli embassy in Dublin. Israel's government, including its foreign ministry, is located in Israel's capital, Jerusalem.

Stop using Tel Aviv as a metonym for Israel's capital or government and correct the error.
December 28, 2025 at 8:57 AM
This AP wire story was sent to thousands of international media outlets. But it was covered by almost none.

Because Palestinians demonstrating their intolerance towards minorities spoils the narrative.

Now imagine the global media outrage if this were about 3 Israelis...

The BBC elevates fringe antizionist Jews to speak for British Jewry, despite data showing most British Jews are Zionists. That isn’t representation. It’s tokenization, and it reframes Jew-hate as a reaction to Israel rather than a prejudice against Jews. honestreporting.com/antizionism-...

Gaza images are treated as neutral. But when Recep Tayyip Erdoğan praises a Hamas-linked photographer and cites his work as genocide evidence at the International Court of Justice, journalism becomes state-backed advocacy. honestreporting.com/from-gaza-to...

Media amplified famine claims against Israel with certainty. Then the same UN-backed source admitted Gaza was never in famine. The reversal was buried.
No accountability. No reckoning.
