How is this news? Some random US official suggested something??? Yall gotta stop with this bullshit.
You know, those dirty dark-skinned people might have sexually corrupted those ethnically pure wome. It's one of the strongest primal tropes for propaganda use.
Since when does Hamas give a shit about public perception???? Rape and murder are fine but they draw the line when Kentucky Karen clutches pearls?
OP is radically pro-Israel. They did everything they could to avoid admitting that it was bad to bomb refugees, especially after telling them to go and then bombing them when they go there. They just kept talking about bad things Hamas did as if that justified bombing refugees. All I can think is they don't consider Palestinians to be human.
Media bias / fact check for The Messenger:
Overall, we rate The Messenger Right-Center biased based on story selection and editorial perspectives that moderately favor the right. We also rate them as Mostly Factual in reporting rather than High due to the use of poor sources, sensationalized content, and one-sided reporting.
I'm confused. Did State Department spokesman Matthew Miller make the statement or not?
Trump said we could cure Covid by drinking bleach and shoving UV lights up our ass. That doesn't make it true and it makes anyone repeating it sound like a jackass.
Which did not answer the question.
Objection, speculation.
A report on a statement is not speculation. The statement could be, but not the report.
Maybe, but that's not how the article is framed.
Personally, I don't think someone spouting off should be repeated. Good journalism would be investigating and verifying the claim.
He's a government spokesman. Good journalism is to quote him directly, which they did. Quotation marks and everything.
Good journalism would be not quoting and repeating unsubstantiated claims at all.
Unless you're going to write an article saying "spokesman makes wild and unsubstantiated claims at press conference".
So good journalism is actually editorials. It's what you think, not what someone says.
There's a term for repeating merely what someone says: hearsay. In no way should that be considered news or journalism.
That's pretty funny
