Reporting on Gaza; Where’s the Objectivity? – News from Jerusalem


Watching the evening news is a very trying time for supporters of Israel. We hear of a high number of civilian casualties in Gaza. We as Christians must mourn for the innocent. We must also denounce the terrorists who declare that the civilians “stand their ground” and stay in their villages and homes as the IDF tries to stop the launching of rockets against civilian targets in Israel. Certainly no one with any credibility will question that the rockets were fired first and that they continue to fall. However, has any reporter, anchor or media agency asked for the source of the casualty lists? Has traditional journalistic objectivity been replaced by prejudiced subjectivity of corporate owners of most mainstream media?
