They still have articles up claiming 500 people were killed in the hospital explosion, and “many are disinclined to believe Israel’s claim.” They immediately repeated Hamas propaganda without any verification, and wrote a score of articles ginning up hate. Al Jazeera used to be somewhat reliable, but it hasn’t been for years. They’re not hiding it either. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago I mean, did anyone really expect a quatari media outlet to be actually free and unbiased? That’s like, being dismayed that russian media is parroting kremlin directives. permalink fedilink source parent [–] letmesleep@feddit.de 6 points 2 years ago Generally speaking, sure. In this case however they're utterly useless. As @JasSmith@sh.itjust.works explains below, they're the ones who spread the hoax about an Israeli missile killing 500 people in a hospital in Gaza. These people have blood on their hands. permalink fedilink source parent [–] fritz@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago Bro what permalink fedilink source parent
