MSM: It's Israel's Fault We Made Things Up
They're hopeless:
A number of journalists claimed during a convention in Jerusalem Monday evening that Israel and the IDF were mostly to blame for the way the foreign media covered the Lebanon war. The panel of journalists, largely from the international media, convened to discuss their coverage of the war, at a conference arranged by the Media Line agency's Mideast Press Club... "We are very disappointed that the IDF didn't give us more opportunities," he added.
Poor babies. But then again, why do you need a battlefield when you can just create on in Photoshop? Also, they did have access:
Wood's claims of restricted battlefield access seemed undermined, however, by the London Times' Stephen Farrell, who said: "I spent most of the war within five miles of the border… you have to get up and put your face right up against the glass, and if you can, to put your head through the glass."
How reflexive is the media's instinct to blame Israel? Even when the media makes up things to blame Israel for, it's Israel's fault.
