        “Al Jazeera also has an opinion page that exhibits significant bias against Israel. …”

        Down vote me all you want. Turns out an Arab news source is just blatantly biased against Israel. It seems like a lot of people on here choose to get their news from sources who share the same opinions they do so that they can get that sweet sweet confirmation bias.

      They have journalists on the ground in Gaza dying and losing their families everyday. There are other news who have crew on ground as well and they all report the same atrocisities. Take this video:

      A journalist causually interviewing multiple 4-7 yr old children who lost limps and sbillings because of the IDF bombing, and there’s no faking this stuff either. The translation is heartbreaking war crimes against humanity.

        I didn’t say bad things weren’t happening. Just that aljazeera is a biased source and that people in this community like it because it gives them confirmation bias.

          CNN interviewed a woman with doctors without bordere who was in Gaza in Oct, and she reported the same thing. Aljazerta is a source with boots on the ground. Nothing bias about live actual footage of civilian targets bombed and killed. AlJazeera is probably bias against Israel considering they bombed all their headquarters and buidlings and killed dosens of their team, but I’m not offering their analylist views or numbers, it’s actual live footage from middle of Gaza which western channels don’t want or can’t afford to do.
