Herzog is the Israeli president today
editPerhaps it should be noted where he's mentioned. Shovalis (talk) 07:22, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
Please Edit This Word Choice
editI think the last sentence of the first paragraph of this page's "Editorial policy and viewpoints" needs an edit: "The Haaretz editorial line is supportive of weaker elements in Israeli society, such as sex workers, foreign laborers, Israeli Arabs, Ethiopian immigrants, and Russian immigrants."
The word "weaker", or the phrase "weaker elements", is too subjective—as well as inflammatory. Isn't it? Dsa605 (talk) 14:27, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
- Maybe they meant weaker like marginalized. If that is the case, an edit is still a good idea for greater clarity. Thanks. Dsa605 (talk) 14:28, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
"Far-left" is not supported.
editI've reverted this edit. The two sources used to describe Haaretz as "far-left" were:
1. Author, Caroline Glick (2023-01-27). "The Israeli Left Begs the World To Protect Its Power". Newsweek. Retrieved 2023-11-20. {{cite web}}: |last= has generic name (help)
2. Morrissey, Ed (2023-10-10). ""At first we were ecstatic": Gaza's FAFO moment and Iran's strategic miscalculation". hotair.com. Retrieved 2023-11-20.
The first is an opinion piece by Caroline Glick, an Israeli conservative. The second is an editorial by Ed Morrissey on Hot Air, a conservative political blog. (It does not appear on the WP:RS/PS list.)
AllSides rates Haaretz "lean left", barely. For reference, other things Hot Air has called "far-left" include The Squad, Ron Filipkowski, Media Matters, The Trevor Project and Planned Parenthood, Mayor Brandon Johnson, and of course, George Soros. grendel|khan 04:10, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- The far-right activist Glick calling Haaretz "far-left" would make a good political cartoon. Zerotalk 08:54, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
As to the last sentence on the first para ("It is known for its left-wing and liberal stances on domestic and foreign issues")
editAs to the last sentence on the first para ("It is known for its left-wing and liberal stances on domestic and foreign issues"):I think that the word "liberal" should be removed for accuracy,and that the word "general" in between "its" and "left-wing" should be written in order to avoid incorrect inclusion (Sometimes right-wing or more "moderate" views are in place,at least until recently).
