Inside Western media’s reporting on Gaza | The Listening Post
When political leaders speak of genocide, they repeat a timeworn mantra: "Never again."
Over the past year, for the Palestinians of Gaza, "again" has become reality – mass casualties broadcast almost in real time by its victims.
This film is about an alternative version of that reality – the one told by major Western news organisations – and how it has provided cover for Israel’s war on Gaza.
Based on interviews with more than a dozen insiders, it lifts the curtain on the inner workings of agenda-setting outlets like CNN, the BBC and The New York Times.
