On the morning of February 14, northern Israel was subjected to a barrage of indiscriminate rocket fire from Lebanon.
In response to this attack, the Israeli air force undertook a “widespread” bombing campaign against Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon,
Media Ignore Anti-Israel Rocket Attack, Focus on Israel’s Military Response
This rocket barrage was the latest escalation in Hezbollah’s campaign against Israel, which it undertook in the wake of Hamas’ October 7 massacre in southern Israel Due to the threat posed by the Iran-backed terror group, tens of thousands of Israeli civilians from the north have evacuated to other parts of the country
Despite this latest violence stemming from the rocket barrage directed at Israel several news outlets chose to frame the story in such a way as to portray Israel as the aggressor
By leaving out vital information and context from their headlines and reports, these news outlets are not only failing to inform their respective audiences properly, but they are also helping to contribute to a false narrative that leaves Hezbollah’s belligerency out of the picture and portrays Israel as the primary aggressor along its northern border.
Don't believe the hype - media bias is a thing
@AkomoCombine @ecksmc 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@AkomoCombine @ecksmc yes they are and I don't understand what's their purpose or what they hope to accomplish by doing that.
💔
@Dbot Their purpose is to confuse, enrage, weaken whatever your poison.
Anything to distract thinking people from actually solving problems
Once problems are solved and there is a solution ,their use becomes more and more irrelevant.
Their job is to report the news. They can have seperate shows to express their opinion but reporting only half a story is bullshit.
@AkomoCombine @Dbot on cable in particular the blurring of news and opinion has been a mainstay for over 30 years. Opionion/punditry is cheap, requires little to no research support and fills time to sell commercials let alone forward agendas. In part my screen name, as used on Twitter, is kinda’ mocking the concept of pundit. It’s so easy a dog can express an opinion.
@CanisPundit @AkomoCombine we need more of that.
