    Tbf it reads like the article is more to confirm the authors’ personal political opinion on the conflict than it is a real objective research effort on the reporting by those major outlets.

    Counting the number of times they mention “Israeli” vs “Palestinian” sounds real low effort, and the suggestion that these should be proportional to the number of casualties is, well, stupid. They put more time in writing the article than they did on actual ‘quantative research’.

    Then they go on about how the Hamas field trip was desribed with words like “massacre” while the Israeli airstrikes weren’t. Well I’d say its logical to use that terminology when talking about gunning down kids point blank as opposed to dropping a bomb on a rooftop hoping to hit the Hamas rocket team you identified 20 minutes earlier. The latter might be detestable but I hope anyone can still see they are different
