Steve Emerson pulls no punches in this indictment of the New York Times, which is no longer even pretending to be fair and balanced. The Hamas propaganda machine is world-class, but who even needs it when the world's biggest newsrooms are cheerleading for you? Emerson: Why Does The New York Times Love Hamas?
In the past week, the Fourth Estate’s Hamas cheerleaders have stripped away any pretense of being honest or neutral, with The New York Times continuing to take the side of the terrorist group in one of the most shameful journalistic episodes I have ever seen. In following The Times' coverage for the past six months and checking external sources of information, one can see a clear pattern of propagandistic reporting favoring Hamas that selectively suppressed or willfully misrepresented information.Meanwhile, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have realized that if the truth is going to get out, it's not going to be the mainstream media's fault. So it is using the power of the internet to counter the anti-Israel spin. The IDF's website features official statistics and releases, and many YouTube videos showing Hamas firing rockets from hospitals, mosques, and schools.
