New in PJ Media: A good deal of what the world thinks it knows about the supposed “genocide” in Gaza is due to the efforts of Hussam Abu Safyia. In October 2023 and December 2024, Safyia penned two guest essays in the New York Times, giving agog Times readers the lurid, gritty details of what […]
How the Obsessive Coverage of Israel Helps Distort Reality
Between 50,000 and 70,000 articles were published worldwide on the war in Gaza in the first nine months of that war. Compare that to the 1,000 articles published about the first nine months of the American campaign in Mosul to defeat the Islamic State (ISIS). Look also at how the New York Times published 6,656 […]
The BBC Covers International Holocaust Remembrance Day
It turns out that the BBC, in covering the observances of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, failed to mention that the Nazis had killed Jews. But what did you expect? Of course, the BBC presenters wouldn’t want to specify exactly who was killed in the Holocaust. That might create greater sympathy for Jews, or worse […]
The Media’s Obsessive Coverage Ascribes to Israel a Negative Significance It Does Not Possess
An examination of the world media’s obsessive coverage of Israel can be found here: “Why global media obsess over Israel and ignore deadlier wars – opinion,” by Samuel J. Hyde, Jerusalem Post, January 13, 2026: If news coverage were meant to be a rational analysis, this is not. Even if news were merely supposed to […]
New York Times makes the news in Nigeria for downplaying jihad massacre of Christians
Christians are suffering at the hands of jihadists in Nigeria, but what does the New York Times care? The New York Times heavily supported Black Lives Matter, boasting that “it may be the largest movement in US history.” Does the Times really care about black lives, or only about certain black lives, particularly when blacks […]
Media Believes Iran’s Death Toll Claims Just As It Believed Hamas’
Consistently enemies of the people. Media headlines are echoing claims by Iran’s regime that only 3,117 people were killed in the Islamic tyranny’s massacres of protesters. Protesters claim a death toll that is far higher and considering that the propaganda of totalitarian regimes tends to be fake, they’re probably closer to the truth. Some have […]
How NPR Covers the War in Gaza
NPR spends far more time in its “State of the World Podcast” covering the war in Gaza than it does any other conflict in the world, including the Russia-Ukraine war, the Sudanese war, and the ongoing conflicts in Yemen, Syria, Myanmar, and Libya. And when its two journalists, Daniel Estrin and Aya Batrawy, interview Hamas […]
John Cleese Denounces the BBC
John Cleese has been following the BBC, as it attempts to ignore or minimize the anti-regime demonstrations in Iran, and he has had quite enough. More on his well-merited fury can be found here: “John Cleese tears into BBC over Iran bias row as actor fumes he’s ‘ashamed’ of broadcaster: ‘It doesn’t want to offend […]
Yes, Mamdani Is a Commie. Will the ‘News’ Outlets That Insisted He Wasn’t Apologize Now?
New in PJ Media: New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Thursday put to rest any lingering doubt about whether or not he is a communist, when he said, to the disgust of people worldwide who have lived under the boot of socialist tyranny, “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth […]
Calling Islamic Terrorism Islamic Terrorism Could Fuel Islamophobia, Media Warns
Oh no. It’s fine to import large numbers of Islamic terrorists into Western nations, but what’s really dangerous is calling them Islamic terrorists because… that could fuel Islamophobia. And everyone knows Islamophobia is much deadlier than Islamic terrorism. After Muslim terrorists killed 15 people at a Chanukah party in Australia, the media insists we must not […]
