MORNING LINE: Panning reporting from Gaza
January 5, 2009 - 6:06 am
Israel’s push into Gaza is the most important story on the planet right now. The Israeli newspaper site Haaretz, in my opinion, has the best coverage in a conflict that has some of our national opinion makers tongue-tied.
Meanwhile, E&P’s Greg Mitchell has this stinging roundup under the title: “Media Commentary Muted as Israel Invades.”
“NEW YORK (Commentary) Israel launched its much-anticipated invasion of Gaza on Saturday. For over a week, U.S. media had provided largely one-sided coverage of the conflict, with little editorializing or commentary arguing against broader Israeli actions.”
