Donald Trump is suing media corporations and targeting individual journalists on social media. The White House press office is playing musical chairs […]

Since 7 October 2023, at least 146 journalists have been killed in Gaza, the West Bank, Israel, and Lebanon, though the actual numbers are […]

Your donations helped us secure the services of one of Michigan’s top intellectual property attorneys, who […]
Meta’s Oversight Board rules “From the River to the Sea” isn’t Hate Speech
( Human Rights Watch ) – Earlier this month, Meta’s Oversight Board found that three Facebook posts containing the phrase “From the River to the Sea” did not violate Meta’s content rules and should remain online. The majority of the Oversight Board members concluded that the phrase, widely used at protests to show solidarity with Palestinians, […]
How Netanyahu corrupted Britain’s oldest Jewish Newspaper with self-serving Propaganda
by Nasim Ahmed Nasimbythedocks ( Middle East Monitor ) – How did Britain’s oldest Jewish newspaper end up publishing a story that Israel’s security forces have raised serious doubts about? That’s the question many are asking with the Jewish Chronicle facing intense criticism over what is seen as a glaring example of journalistic malpractice. The […]
