(FRONT PAGE MAG) – If all human lives are equally valuable, as the so-called “mainstream media” pretend, why do they highlight some while completely ignoring others?
Take the recent Israeli/Palestinian conflict. For two weeks, day after day, hour after hour, the media showed emotionally-charged videos, pictures, and provided regular updates of Palestinian lives lost, with 248 being the most recent figure.
If the average American was asked why the media so dwelled on this conflict, including by providing regular and updated statistics, their response would likely be that any human death is a terrible and therefore newsworthy matter—hence the media are only doing their job, objectively and fairly.
