NYT Condemned for Clarifying Starving Palestinian Child's 'Preexisting Health Condition' | Common Dreams

The U.S. media coverage of the impact of Israel's blockade on Gaza has sparked controversy. Israeli officials focused on one child's health condition to downplay reports of starvation.

    “Preexisting health condition”? You mean…needing food to survive?

      No, cerebral palsy.

      People are definitely dying of starvation, but this one photo was misleading. It illustrated both the palsy and the starvation, while only telling you about the starvation.

        A none starved kid with cerebral palsy don’t look terrible like that but a starved kid even with no precondition can look like that. Sono there is nothing misleading.

        Misleading reports like this hurt far more than they could have possibly helped.
