"When did the so-called West first begin to lose standing in the eyes of the rest of the world? Why is the British #media class positioned so uniquely close to power, so delusional, and so compromised over #Gaza? Will China replace America, in the coming century, as the new hegemonic power? Has it already?"

"[P]lenty of #journalists have continued to cover #Israel’s assault on #Gaza. The explicit problem for Friedman is that they are not ‘international journalists’. The implicit problem is that they are Palestinian – or ‘local’ – journalists. [...]

"When ‘international journalists’ relay unfounded Israeli allegations against #PalestinianJournalists, they are legitimating murder."

'The CfMM analysed some 3,873 online articles and 32,092 broadcast segments, to identify what it called “the marginalisation of Palestinian suffering and the amplification of Israeli narratives.” Central to their claim is that despite Palestinian fatalities outnumbering Israeli ones by more than 34 to 1, coverage of Israeli deaths dominated.'
