CNN is desperately trying to insinuate that Israel has bombed heavily populated *refugee* camps. No matter what they do well, they never fail to insert____bias here.

ABC reported this morning that a school was hit and showed video of wounded kids. It ain't biased if its the facts...just the news.

Agree, however some have the tendency to quickly dismiss the devastating attacks against the people of Israel. Let the news media show the wounded innocent women and children in Palestine but also refer back to the prior attacks by the terrorist who struck innocent women and children in Israel.

Hint: Never let facts get in the way of a good story!

Agreed. That isn't what CNN was doing though. They kept repeating over and over that *perhaps* heavily populated refugee camps were hit. It wasn't only bias, it wasn't only NOT news, it was speculation for which there was no basis in fact.
In that school, one child was killed. In all the rest of the bombing, only 2 people were killed. That is almost miraculous.
Still, with hours of bombing, wounded would be expected. Deaths would be expected. Much to Israel's credit, in such close quarters, the strikes were masterful. That is news too. The difference between Israel and the Islamic Jihad is that Israel doesn't deliberately target civilians, especially children. Otherwise, they could have blown Gaza completely off the map. THAT was the message. If they don't listen, the only alternative is that they die. Israel CAN. It didn't...this time.
