Know The Source Of Your News
With the Associated Press recently being bagged for false reporting, and Reuters for image manipulation, it’s no surprise that more and more news from the Middle East seems very pro-Palestinian and anti-Israeli and anti-American. Why the bias? Well, these agencies are getting their information from one side of the story: the stringers.
Everyone picks up from the AP and Reuters, and runs their stories as news. Mainstream news agencies, from newspapers to TV news, expect it to be pre-vetted for facts, so they don’t check the stories. But what if the AP and Reuters don’t properly vet the facts? Then you get what we have now: news with bias.
The Jawa Report has the latest AP fuck-up: Majdi Mohammed.
