In December 2023, The New York Times published an explosive article - now widely discredited - that detailed Hamas’s agenda to weaponise rape and sexual violence on October 7. We reveal the controversies surrounding the article along with the broader issue of Western media outlets’ pro-Israeli/anti-Palestinian bias.

On our radar:

After they won an award at the Berlinale film festival, the reaction to a speech by filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Basel Adra has become the latest example of Germany’s toxic debate on Gaza. Meenakshi Ravi reports.

Genocide in Gaza through the eyes of Israeli soldiers

For months, Israeli soldiers in Gaza have been documenting their own war crimes against Palestinians and sharing them on social media.

The Listening Post collected and reviewed hundreds of items. We asked three experts on human rights and torture to examine the material.

The Intercept has a long, detailed piece on NYT's coverage claiming systemic sexual violence on 10/7:

I knew the Times leaned pro-Israel, but this report was pretty surprising in terms of failing to meet basic journalistic standards.

But yeah, there has been many instances where journalists were way to quick to jump on story and they got it completely wrong.

There is so much chaos on the Palestinian side so I can understand when reporting gets facts wrong on that side. But you would expect easy the isreali side to be able to provide reliable info but they blatantly lie.
