One would think that following Donald Trump’s successful discrediting of CNN in the early days of his 1st term as President, other news outlets would be more careful. But the BBC walked right into this one. The BBC has persisted in taking every claim by Hamas at face value and bashing Israel at every turn.
Karoline Levitt was clearly ready for the BBC bash and turned the accusation from the BBC into an accusation at the BBC. It is truly sad that the only effective way to fight back is to be harsh. But as the old adage says, “the truth hurts.”
Treating enemy statistics as facts is so clearly preposterous, especially when the Hamas has been proven over and over again to be a lying outfit that uses propaganda as one of it’s main weapons in attacking Israel. With the opening of news reporting into thousands of small news outlets, millions of people have dropped CNN and the BBC from being their primary news source. This is one of many things that the Trump administration deserves thanks for.
