The news site is reposting an Article written by Agence France Presse which the French government owns 20% of. (And majorly subsidised). The French government like most western governments is pro-Israel biased. So I’m not too suprised by the slanted reporting.
(Yes of course the AFP claims “editorial independence”, but is any news site “independent” when the funder has the power to cut the money if it says something the funder doesn’t like).
Isn’t France about to recognise the Palestinian state? And isn’t there a current crisis between France and Israel over what is happening with strong words from Macron to qualify what Israel is doing?
Macron ain’t saying shit he opened his mouth a bit and now he start every phrase with ‘Israel right to defense and pls kill children in a less obviously bad way’
(Yes of course the AFP claims “editorial independence”, but is any news site “independent” when the funder has the power to cut the money if it says something the funder doesn’t like).
I think that when the funder is the State, laws make that a bit more difficult than when it’s completely private. Although it doesn’t completely solve that problem ofc.
