What is this Israeli "self-censorship" claim? BS. Haaretz publishes plenty about the atrocities in progress. Far more than the American media dares to publish.
"In February the BBC apologised over "serious flaws" in the making of the programme about children's lives in Gaza, after it was revealed its 13-year-old narrator was the son of a Hamas minister."
There was no correction on what was actually said though. It's a terrible state of affairs when who someone is related to, is of more concern than the horrific and constant terrors they and other children have had inflicted upon them by Israel for nearly 2 years.
agree. Typical propaganda approach, harp on some minor point to change the discussion. Some say Neta created Hamas to weaken another organization at the time. The whole history of what's been happening there is very complicated and nuanced. The motto of their intel org reads, "by way of deception, though shalt do war" so it's not surprising that truth seems artificially scarce.
Because they couldn't independently verify or revise, and Israel can't be trusted either. It's ridiculous how so many BBC articles are like "source: Hamas." This documentary reveal wasn't even surprising, I thought it went without saying.
There were some fairly questionable translations, like translating "Yahud" (Jews) to "Israel" or "Israeli forces". To me that's more of a red flag than any Hamas affiliation.

What about Latin Americans in the US?

The editorial scrutiny here is minimal at best.
Last year Israel's military censor banned 1,635 articles and partially redacted another 6,265

Pressure, intimidation, and censorship: Israeli journalists have faced growing repression in the past year https://rsf.org/en/pressure-intimidation-and-censorship-isra...
okay! I agree. But Haaertz does a better job than the US media does. Gotta give them that.
It's wartime, so censorship is publicly asknowledged there.
I might add that journalists in Gaza are often killed.
The Israeli Military Censor has nothing to do with there being a "war" now. They've been censoring news in Israel since the late 1970s.
Haaretz is currently boycotted by the Israeli govt since Nov 2024, though not the same as a ban.
aljazeera banned. I was reading it daily during the attacks on Iran. They had updates every few minutes. Nothing I saw was not factual, AFAIK.
bbc reports occasionally on the Gaza situation. Like this

What happened to the US media? It all seems to be recipes, dating advice, wellness tips on the front pages.
I am in the US but get my news from elsewhere. It is not an option anymore;-)
BBC is not perfect either: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0k7n6kd8yxo

That's not correct. There was no findings that it wasn't factually true.
Who checked that? If nobody, then of course there were no findings.
There were some fairly questionable translations, like translating "Yahud" (Jews) to "Israel" or "Israeli forces". To me that's more of a red flag than any Hamas affiliation.
US media definitely reports on this too
Haaretz is the only mainstream media to report regularly on Palestinian casualties. It has a readership of less than 5% [1].
