If anyone doubts that dishonest reporting and journalistic malpractice by the likes of Jeffrey Gettleman in this NY Times piece that Bari relied upon for this podcast - can inflame emotions and allow people to mentally justify the carnage and depravity of the assault on Gaza please see Steve's comments above. Then watch this segment on The Hill

If you still have doubts about the veracity of Max's critique ask yourself this: why did the The Daily pull it's segment? Why is there an internal uprising in the NY Times newsroom over the reporting? Why hasn't the NY Times or Jeffrey Gettleman responded to the claims more than a month later???

First, I’ve followed Bari Weiss long enough to know that, as any competent journalist, she relies on multiple sources for her reporting.

Second, relying on anything Max Blumenthal says is beyond insane. He is simply not credible.

Third, I have family members that have physically seen the devastation that Hamas wrought on October 7th and have been working with the families of the hostages and the ones that have been released. Every single word in the podcast is true. Period.

It was barely worth responding to the lies you posted but it is necessary to push back when people lie about what happened.
