Call me naive, and flame me all you want, but I have a problem with articles like this.

The title asserts Muslims are harassing hospital workers in France. None of the sources support that claim. Hospital staff in France are getting escorts to protect them from harassment, that is true. None of the source articles blame Muslims for hassling hospital staff. There is a source that claims immigrant neighborhoods are resisting quarantine measures and some stores have been looted. One of the links is to a twitter page that no longer exists. There nothing to support the claim Muslims are hassling hospital workers.

I am not saying bad things are not happening, and that Muslims are not doing bad things. Except I have seen a lot of articles from conservative sources, that make false claims about what others have written. That is propaganda and plagiarism, not journalism. Even when it feeds us what we want to hear and believe, that does not excuse it.

Now if this is happening, that immigrants are threatening hospital workers in France and Europe, then conservative journalists have the responsibility of finding sources that actually says it, instead of reading between the lines of another author's work.

You haven’t heard of “No Go Zones”, burning of cars, looting and all sorts of bad actors in France?
