Let us understand that press coverage is biased for multiple reasons. Among the most compelling reasons to promote the Arab agenda is to maintain access to the battlefield and thus a salary check. Should any reporter accurately note the purposeful placement of civilians within harms’ way by Hamas, how long would they be working the scene. Also, there is the related issue of the personal fear that reporters experience when entering active battle zones. A consequence of that fear is the accurate judgment that distorting the reportage against Israel will bring no personal harm to the worker from the Israelis, but they might indeed find themselves carrying their heads if they actively sided with Israel and were within grabbing distance of Hamas.
Indeed, I view much of the opposition to Israel as being the result of the same mechanism. Criticizing Israel is simply a much safer ploy than criticizing Israel’s enemies.
