Manufacturing Contempt | Melanie Phillips on UK Media's Anti-Israel Bias and Outright Lies
Manage episode 432126954 series 3590747
Why does the media seem so hostile to basic facts about Israel?
UK journalist and author Melanie Phillips has spent decades among the top echelons of British Press, writing for The Guardian, The Times and the New Statesman, and she’s been calling out mainstream media bias against Israel long before October 7.
But the PR war that Israel is battling isn’t just hurt by media bias; the onus is also on Israel to dispute a propagandist narrative, and call out lies when it hears them.
Melanie Phillips makes the case that Israel and its supporters need to do far more to win the hearts and minds of ordinary, decent people who will otherwise support the side they’re being told is moral and just.
