-Caveat Lector- A big part of the problem regarding the reporting of distorted pro Israeli bias in news reporting is simple logistics and lack of reporter initiative - aside from the usual bias of reporters and their editors.
Most reporters spend their time in Israeli luxury hotels and restaurants, shop in Israeli stores and malls, etc. They identify their daily life with Israel. Reporting from the PA is dangerous and difficult. Few reporters stay overnight there. Israeli soldiers try to make it difficult for reporters to access the PA or report on ongoing IDF attacks and atrocities. That is why we usually hear of "suicide terrorist" and "terrorists killed" but never "Palestinian child shot in head...teenager paralyized by "rubber" bullet... 50 families made homeless by IDF bulldozing tanks, pregant Palestinian woman dies giving birth at roadblock, etc. etc." The legend of the intrepid, foreign correspondent is just a media created myth. flw <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
