New York Times Admits To Publishing Fake Photo And Story About Starving Gaza Boy.

Is this simply poor reporting, or a blatant attempt at demonizing Israel in order to sway World opinion against their effort to rid Gaza of Hamas.

I tend to choose the second because it is reported that they deliberately cropped out the picture of the perfectly healthy brother.

This is the same Paper that received numerous Pulitzer Prizes for their reporting on the fake RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA hoax.

What the fuck are you talking about, Jacky? Kids (and adults) are starving over there. There is nothing to dispute about that fact. If you don't believe the NY Times and their bullshit pic, believe your master.

There is "real starvation" in Gaza, Donald Trump has said, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted there was no such thing.

Asked if he agreed with Netanyahu that it was a "bold-faced lie" to say Israel was fuelling hunger in Gaza, the US president replied: "I don't know... those children look very hungry... that's real starvation stuff."


Speaking during a meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland, Trump said: "Nobody's done anything great over there. The whole place is a mess... I told Israel maybe they have to do it a different way."

His comments came after the UN's humanitarian chief said "vast amounts" of food were needed to stave off starvation.
... But - the NY Times story was WRONG there, Lucas.
Which is WHY they admitted it.

Fake news to promote an anti-jewish narrative?

How is that not Nazi-like propaganda?

Ain't a question who reported it or narrative.

The fact is they are in famine. I don't care what is being stated as the condition by Israel. They are actively denying the bare minimum care of a civilian population and the people they don't want to have their own State are looking like the occupiers relatives that were freed from Concentration camps.
The thread is about The NY Times manipulating a Photo and the narrative.

Just because they didn’t vet the photo properly before publishing doesn’t make the story “fake news”. They found out that part of the article was incorrect and published a retraction. Just like any reputable news source should do.

The truth is that there is a man made famine occurring in Gaza. The scope of the famine can be debated but it’s still occurring and denying that just feeds the narrative that Israel is pushing.

Don’t fall for it.
