Writes David Martin:

And there’s a big reason for that, we might surmise from Ted Galen Carpenter’s article.

It is a sad reality that the establishment news media’s coverage of the Israel-Hamas fighting may be even more shallow, biased, and hawkish than the coverage of the Russia-Ukraine war or previous international conflicts.

Concerning Israel, my impression is that the script has been flipped and the “conservative” press has been much more pro-U.S. involvement than the “liberal” press, whereas with the war in Ukraine, the reverse is true.
