Media Headlines Obscure Facts on Lethal Palestinian Terror Attack
(HonestReporting) Emanuel Miller - A Palestinian gunman opened fire in the Old City of Jerusalem on Sunday, killing one Israeli and injuring several others. Yet multiple news outlets distorted their headlines to hide who was attacking and who was attacked. CNN reported: "One dead, four injured, in suspected shooting attack in Jerusalem." The initial Associated Press headline first referred to the Palestinian terrorist: "Israeli police shoot dead Palestinian who killed 1 Israeli and injured 4 others." BBC News hid who was behind the shooting and who was being targeted: "Jerusalem shooting: Gunman kills one and wounds three in Old City." Ireland's RTE News did the same: "One dead and three wounded in Jerusalem shooting."
