To call the MSM "whores" is an insult to whores.

"Bringing this element of the Gaza situation to light entails some real dangers. Its a saga that cant be told directly in detail. If it is, and if specific reporters can be identified here, people will be harmed. Not just the reporters, but their families, too. But if this isnt told, youll be harmed. "
So, it's more important to my career to be in the area spouting bull$__+ than to leave the area and report the facts.
I make more money that way.

The “MSM” does not even pretend to be unbiased.
NBC, and antiSemities like Holt, take the story
only from Gaza and their terrorist-supporting “reporters”.

My take is that most talking heads are incredibly uninformed about military aspects of what they are trying to report.
For example, anything that blows up is the results of an airstrike.
For another, any destroyed building is the result of Israeli action even though the building shows clear signs if an internal explosion.
A final example is the disporportionate number of 20 something males being described as civilian deaths.

They’re also consistently failing to mention that twenty percent of the rockets Hamas is launching are falling on the citizens of Gaza.

The safest course of action for those journalists is for all of them to stay completely out of Gaza and allow the IDF to get on with the dirty work of war without all the sensationalism.

Journalists, of course, wont tell you what your missing in the coverage. I truly enjoyed the article, but had to wince when I read this sentence and recalled, earlier in the article, the author's claim of over 50 years in the "business."
The contents was excellent, but merely confirmed what anyone over 12 knows to be true, simply by reading a half dozen books about the islamic culture, or watching the news for a few months.
Nevertheless there are far too many thirty-or fortysomethings still blissfully ignorant of the obvious, and quote absurd muslim "reports" and atrociies as fact. Never mind that they are immediately shown to be made up, or photographs of themselves committing the atrocities credited to others.
