Thuggery & Trickery: How Islamic Terrorists Manipulate the Media
"With Fox News reporter Steve Centanni and cameraman Olaf Wiig still
being held hostage by Palestinian terrorists, the Western media has
received a potent reminder that broadcasting certain truths from inside
Arab territory can result in devastating consequences.
While it is not clear the kidnappers' motivation--they have yet to
state any demands--this is just the latest in a string of abductions,
which is in and of itself only part of the arsenal of heavy-handed
media intimidation present in the region.
Thuggery helps explain the obscenely low volume of negative press
coverage of the Palestinian Authority, Fatah, Hamas, Hezbollah, and
others. But it doesn't account for all, or even most, of the
persistently slanted coverage.
As any veteran of Middle East media coverage knows, many Arab
stringers and free-lancers--hired on the cheap by Western outlets,
ostensibly because of their superior knowledge for local leaders and
events--see it as their duty to demonize Israel, while exalting fellow
Arabs or Muslims.
But while the widespread use of Arab locals in covering the Middle East
and the frightening level of threatened and real violence are both
deeply troubling, more concerning is that the Palestinian propaganda
machine has enjoyed tremendous success over the years hoodwinking
supposedly sophisticated Western journalists. And Hezbollah has done
just that over the past month.
In short, almost nothing that is purported to happen in the Arab world
can automatically be taken at face value. Not even if it's captured in
a photo.
Problems with "fixers"
When Reuters was forced to sever ties with freelance photographer Adnan
Hajj and remove over 900 of his photos from its database earlier this
month, long-whispered questions about the reliability of Arab stringers
and freelancers came to the forefront.
Nowhere is the use of Arab "fixers" (as they are known) more common
than in the Palestinian territories. And yet despite the extensive
reliance on locals who presumably enjoy greater familiarity with the
terrain and key players, negative press coverage of the Palestinian
Authority or various Islamic terrorist organizations operating in the
territories has long been scant.
This void in coverage is not because such evidence does not exist. The
Palestinian Media Watch, a nonprofit that operates on a tight budget,
has easily reported more on PA incitement and indoctrination, for
example, than all Western media outlets combined.
The revelation that Hajj had digitally manipulated his photos left at
least one prominent Arab journalist was unsurprised. "Sadly, things
like this happen a lot, especially when your local fixers are openly
affiliated and have a clear agenda," explains Jerusalem Post reporter
Khaled Abu Toameh. He adds that some of the Arab stringers and
freelancers contracted by Western media outlets are "people who see
themselves as foot soldiers for the cause."
Violence against Arab journalists
Toameh is careful not to paint with too broad a brush, and he stresses
that there are Arab journalists who do their best to get the story out.
But the record is well-established that reporting certain truths in the
Palestinian territories can result in intimidation or sometimes severe
violence.
Whereas most of the Western journalists kidnapped before Centanni and
Wiig have been released within hours, threatened and actual violence
against their Arab counterparts has been far more brutal.
After being arrested and detained for six days because he didn't give
Yasser Arafat the desired coverage in the run-up to the 1996 election,
Maher al-Alami, editor of Al Quds, the largest Palestinian newspaper in
Jerusalem, said that "the Palestinian media follow his (Arafat's)
instructions out of fear."
When an Associated Press camerman filmed Palestinians in Nablus
rejoicing the 9/11 attacks, he "was summoned to a Palestinian Authority
security office and told that the material must not be aired,"
according to the AP's own account. Threats from Islamic terrorists on
Arafat's payroll quickly followed. One PA cabinet officer even stated
that the PA could not "guarantee the life" of the cameraman if the
footage was released.
The Associated Press never officially released the footage.
How the "stage" is set
To get an idea the lengths to which Palestinians have gone to
manufacture sympathy for them and outrage against the Jewish state,
consider a production from April 28, 2002. During a funeral procession,
the stretcher carrying the "victim" was dropped. Oops. No problem,
though, as the "victim" sprung up quickly and was able to shake it off.
The only reason the public learned of the funny, phony funeral was
because it was captured on video by an Israeli drone. Given that almost
everything done by the Palestinian propaganda machine is for the media,
why did it only come out after the Israeli government released its
grainy footage? Good thing for the Palestinians, though, that
productions for Western consumption typically have gone much smoother.
Examples abound of Western reporters being duped or threatened. In
April 2002, Israel Defense Forces raided the Jenin refugee camp, a
known terrorist breeding ground and safe haven. Palestinians
immediately accused the Jewish state of systematically committing war
crimes, and the buzzword soon tossed about by the Western press was
"massacre."
That no massacre actually occurred--not even the United Nations, the
Palestinians' best friend, found any evidence to suggest one
had--received only a fraction of the earlier, largely uncritical
reporting. Ditto for the incident this June where many family members
died on a beach in northern Gaza. Originally covered as an Israeli
shelling of innocent Palestinians, it turned out that Israel almost
certainly played no role in the tragedy. The media mea culpa, though,
was essentially mute.
In a widely circulated photo taken last month and distributed by Agence
France Press, two older, hijab-clad Lebanese women are wailing in front
of caskets. Dozens of caskets, actually. The caskets were lined up
against a wall, and numbers were spray-painted on the wall. Somehow,
the women had wedged themselves into the narrow space between the
coffins and the wall, and the numbers conveniently appeared directly
behind them--guaranteed to be in any photo. (Click here to view.)
The problems with the photo are obvious. Why would the women force
their way into a crevice, when they could more easily face both the
caskets and the wall? Quite simply, that shot wouldn't capture both the
mourning faces and the numbers signifying the enormity of the tragedy.
And on the topic of the numbers, the ones spray-painted on the wall
were the kind used in the west, not in South Lebanon, thus erasing any
doubt about the photo-op's intended audience.
This photo, though, was not taken by an Arab freelancer or some hack
Westerner. It was shot by award-winning photographer Marco Di Lauro,
who won praise for his work with Marines in Iraq. The benign--and
probably correct--interpretation is that he just wasn't suspicious
enough.
Yet given that thugs from Hezbollah, Hamas, and Arafat's Fatah control
almost everything in the most "newsworthy" areas of the Arab world, any
scene or event encountered by Western media outlets must be viewed with
supreme skepticism.
But it's not as if this is news to the Western media. They know it. Yet
pretend as if they don't. That's the real travesty."

Not again - is this the only fabrication you can produce? I'm sure there

Does your chassis have an engine that is "transverstite" - mounted,
luv...???
"Mini Moke
>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mini Moke is an open car based on the Austin Mini, designed by Sir
Alec Issigonis. Made at the Longbridge, Birmingham plant of the British
Motor Corporation between 1964 and 1968, 15,000 were produced in the
United Kingdom. It was subsequently produced in Australia, Portugal and
Italy.
The name comes from the Mini car (with which the Moke shares many
parts) and Moke which is archaic British slang meaning Donkey."

Granted, Fox does not have the same political agenda as the other
'news' sources. Regardless, it is difficult to take seriously those
who scream about Fox while ignoring the 50 years of a single political
influence in broadcast news.
When bloggers can find misrepresentation and exaggeration on an almost
daily basis, what does that say about the accuracy of the information
we are expected to treat as 'news'? Evidently you choose to believe
that - so long as the source is not Fox - accuracy is not an issue. It
is one thing to be naive, and yet another to be indoctrinated.
And before you scream about an alignment I might have with or for Fox
News - I do not have cable or satellite television, and have never seen
that program.

If you had you would not have bothered to indirectly defend them. They are
without any doubt the most biased news service of the English speaking
media; it's almost as if they are the official spokeman for Bush's appalling
administration. Indeed one of their reporters has now become the the White
House official spokesman - he won't have to change his approach one jot

Just so we all understand your logic in this; you politically disagree
with one specific news source, and therefore this source is
unacceptable. Sources of news reporting which agree with your politics
are, however, unbiased and perfectly acceptable. Even if their
reporting is specifically slanted towards a political objective. Does
that pretty much explain it?
That is, bias in the media is acceptable - but only so long as it is
your bias which is expounded.
