    U.S. Media Coverage Of Israel-Gaza Conflict Has Hit All-Time Lows

    The following article was published by The Huffington Post on July 24, 2014:

    Jeremy Scahill On U.S. Media Coverage Of Israel-Gaza Conflict: 'We've Hit All-Time Lows'

    Jeremy Scahill joined HuffPost Live on Wednesday to discuss his expose for the Intercept on the way the U.S. government handles its terrorist watchlist database. During the interview, host Alyona Minkovski asked the journalist about media coverage of the Israel-Gaza conflict, and Scahill had some strong opinions on the matter.

    "We could say this every time I come on your show and talk to you: we've hit all-time lows with media coverage in this country," Scahill told Minkovski. "When you look at what's happening right now in Gaza, this is a massive massacre and one epic series of war crime after war crime, child after child being killed."

    Scahill went on to say that "Israeli propagandists are largely given carte blanche to say what they want on American television with very little pushback."

    Catch the rest of Scahill's views on Israel/Gaza media coverage in the video above, and watch the full HuffPost Live interview below:

    I couldn't agree more and "massacre" is the appropriate word ... I think that it's time to admit that a lot of our institutions are corrupt and all Americans should be coming together to change this ... in the case of mainstream media, turn it off ... advertisers will soon get the message and withdraw support ....

    More of the same, unfortunately ... truth seems to be a disappearing commodity ....
