🚨 EXPOSED: In December, several Canadian news media outlets – based exclusively off a University of Waterloo press release – stated as fact that 26-year-old twin sisters Sally and Dalia Ghazi Ibaid, who lived in Gaza but had been accepted to a University of Waterloo PhD program, were killed in an Israeli airstrike. However, no evidence has been produced publicly to corroborate this claim, despite the University’s own press release and a number of news outlets claiming it as fact. https://honestreporting.ca/exposed-university-of-waterloo-fails-to-substantiate-claim-that-israeli-airstrike-killed-twin-palestinian-sisters-in-gaza-headed-to-school-for-phd-program/

In late December, a news story broke that Israel had set fire to a hospital in Gaza. While Hamas certainly made that claim, Israel stated that its soldiers were not even in the hospital at all. But rather than report both sides, or make an effort to find the truth, a number of Canadian news media outlets simply reported Hamas’ claims as truth, telling the public that Israel set fire to a hospital, in a scandalous example of journalistic malpractice. https://honestreporting.ca/news-outlets-act-as-hamas-stenographers-in-reporting-false-claim-that-israel-set-fire-to-hospital-in-gaza/
