And yet The New York Times didn’t highlight the latest killings in its vague headline, which mentioned only ‘tensions,’ ” wrote Gilead Ani, a senior researcher at the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting (CAMERA), in a recent analysis. “It didn’t report on the attack in any proportion to its importance, with just four paragraphs of its 35-paragraph story focused on the attack.”AdvertisementAs the CAMERA analysis noted, the Times reported on “Palestinian” food three times in recent months, including on the day of the funeral of the Dee sisters. When talking about Israel, however, the headlines are active: “Israeli Raid on West Bank City Kills Nine Palestinians, Officials Say” and “Israeli Raid Kills at Least 5 Palestinians in West Bank.”
