Speaking of the impact of fair Media on the Palestinian-israeli conflict. Media and news can be incredibly powerful tools to hold governments accountable, reach the masses with critical information, and open eyes to new perspectives. Media also played a big role in how people see the world around them and how they interpret important international events, including war and conflict. That's how powerful is 'fair media'. #media #public #news

The #Israeligovernment and its backers (including the US) have long declared war on #PressFreedom and #FreedomofSpeech There is no liberalism, there is no dignity, there is no integrity, there is no truth, only hollow platitudes and lies, lies, lies and poisonous improper propaganda The "fog of war" is mere fabrication for propagandised publication The mainstream media #MSM are taking us all for mugs Thankfully truth is finally breaking about the long barbaric neo-colinial occupation of #Gaza via an ever-expanding plethora of #independentmedia sources available at our fingertips and the contemporaneous capture of evidence made possible by the digital economy The truth will prevail and is prevailing but the concern is how many thousands of completely innocent children, women, men, journalists, doctors, nurses, teachers, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, grandmothers and grandfathers will be needlessly murdered in the interim...? The international Committee to Protect Journalists stated on 22 December The Israel-Gaza war is the most dangerous situation for journalists we have ever seen, and these figures show that clearly," said Sherif Mansour, CPJ's Middle East and North Africa program coordinator. "The Israeli army has killed more journalists in 10 weeks than any other army or entity has in any single year. And with every journalist killed, the war becomes harder to document and to understand." (which is probably precicsely the point) More journalists have been murdered and reportedly specifically targeted since as detailed by another excellent broadcast by Ian Curr on 4PR - Voice of the People: “In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ― George Orwell Hear the voices of Wael al-Dahdouh (journalist in #Gaza) and his colleagues who have been targeted by Israel, Jeremy Corbyn (former leader of the Labour Party in Britain), #AntonyBlinken (US Secretary of State) and John Boyd (activist and singer from Queensland in the 1980s). Condolences We are deeply saddened by Israeli murders of two journalists who have been bringing news from Gaza for the past three months. They were Al Jazeera Media Network's @Hamza Wael Al-Dahdouh and AFP journalist, Mustafa Thuraya. Image: Wael Al-Dahdouh and family member. Al Jazeera journalist Wael Dahdouh holds the hand of his son Hamza, who also worked for Al Jazeera and who was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Rafah, Gaza Strip, Jan. 7, 2024.

Divisions over Gaza grow as the prime ministers of Spain and Ireland demanded a thorough review of the EU-Israel Association Agreement this week. In an open letter to the European Commission’s President, Ursula von der Leyen, and the EU’s High Representative for foreign policy, Josep Borrell, they specifically called for an assessment of Article 2, Israel's adherence to "the essential points of the relationship in terms of human rights and democratic principles". The letter further states implementing the “two state solution” as the “only way to ensure that this cycle of violence is not repeated”. The EU’s approach towards Israel continues to be divisive and even dangerous. The UNRWA debacle stands on the edge of complete service interruption, as the United States, Canada, and ten EU member states have suspended their funding to the organisation. ✍️ Report by Marta Casares-Lara & Hazar Deniz Eker 📷 Image Credit: Damage following an Israeli airstrike in Gaza Palestinian News & Information Agency (Wafa), CC BY-SA 3.0, via Wikimedia Commons

Acclaimed journalist Mehdi Hasan joins Democracy Now to discuss U.S. media coverage of the Israeli war on Gaza and how the war is a genocide being abetted by the United States. Hasan says U.S. media is overwhelmingly pro-Israel and fails to convey the truth to audiences. "Palestinian voices not being on American television or in American print is one of the biggest problems when it comes to our coverage of this conflict," he says. Hasan has just launched a new media company, Zeteo, which he started after the end of his weekly news program on MSNBC and Peacock earlier this year. The cable network announced it was canceling his show in November. The move drew considerable outrage, with critics slamming MSNBC for effectively silencing one of the most prominent Muslim voices in U.S. media. Hasan also warns U.S. media coverage of the 2024 election is largely unable to capture the threat to democracy posed by Donald Trump and the modern Republican Party. “We need to speak very clearly about what that fascist threat is,” says Hasan, who warns media outlets cannot “normalize his extremism and racism and bigotry,” because the right to free press itself could be under threat if he regains power. “One of our two major parties has been fully radicalized and is now in bed with white supremacists. … Let’s be plain about that.” 00:10 Intro 3:48 U.S. Media 15:52 Gaza 27:52 Covering Trump & Fascism 30:40 Banning TikTok https://lnkd.in/eGC8VKsh

“The open-source analysis focuses on the first six weeks of the conflict, from the October 7 Hamas-led attacks that killed 1,139 IsraelisOpens in a new tab and foreign workers to November 24, the beginning of the weeklong “humanitarian truce” agreed to by both parties to facilitate hostage exchanges. During this period, 14,800 Palestinians, including more than 6,000 children, were killed by Israel’s bombardment of Gaza. Today, the Palestinian death toll is over 22,000. The Intercept collected more than 1,000 articles from the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Los Angeles Times about Israel’s war on Gaza and tallied up the usages of certain key terms and the context in which they were used. The tallies reveal a gross imbalance in the way Israelis and pro-Israel figures are covered versus Palestinians and pro-Palestinian voices — with usages that favor Israeli narratives over Palestinian ones. This anti-Palestinian bias in print media tracks with a similar survey of U.S. cable news that the authors conducted last month for The ColumnOpens in a new tab that found an even wider disparity. The stakes for this routine devaluing of Palestinian lives couldn’t be higher: As the death toll in Gaza mountsOpens in a new tab, entire cities are leveled and rendered uninhabitable for years, and whole family lines are wiped out, the U.S. government has enormous influence as Israel’s primary patron and weapons supplier. The media’s presentation of the conflict means there are fewer political downsides to lockstep support for Israel. Coverage from the first six weeks of the war paints a bleak picture of the Palestinian side, according to the analysis, one that stands to make humanizing Palestinians — and therefore arousing U.S. sympathies — more difficult. “
Story by The Intercept "For every two Palestinian deaths, Palestinians are mentioned only once in the coverage of major newspapers we analyzed. For every Israeli death, Israelis are mentioned eight times — or a rate 16 times more per death that of Palestinians." https://lnkd.in/eYXSHaXv

The Free Press in Ethiopia can’t be free until the drifters, apologists and want-to-be journalists and Medias are put out of commission. It’s about time Ethiopians draw the line between the real things and those masquerading as journalist and free press to deceive the public. by
The accidental journalist, refugee, tourist, or the all-in-one spy? 😀

What are your thoughts on this? Afridi targeted Imran Khan indirectly in a recent tweet. "No one can tarnish the beauty of the moon by spitting at it; the spittle will only fall back on the one who spits." Imran Khan #ImranKhan #Pakistan #ShahidAfridi #Politics #Cricket #Leader #Criticism #Propaganda #puppet #Leadership#Innovation#CareerGrowth#Motivation#BusinessDevelopment
Senior political analyst and journalist Hassan Nisar opined on Shahid Khan Afridi's latest tweet, which covertly targeted Imran Khan. Hassan Nisar said that Imran Khan's charm cannot be broken, even if a thousand Shahid Afridis come. Shahid Afridi does not have that kind of influence. There is no question of breaking Imran Khan's spell. #pakistanrepublic

After a Long time! In this Article, I tried to focus on bias in language of media portrayal regarding Palestine—by juxtaposing it with Ukraine. How are the narratives shaped? This question has many answers. And I have tried to present one of these. Thank you Unseen Conflicts for this! #mediacoverage #palestine #biasawareness
How does one change the narrative? One of the easiest ways, as shown by Palestinian journalists, is to document. - Meher Fatima #media #palestine #palestinelivesmatter #gazawar #ukrainewar #ukraineconflict #linkedinlearning #newpost #newarticle https://lnkd.in/gypsSsVW
