Frontline says it may never broadcast the Gaza documentary

First, PBS’s Frontline said it had only temporarily cancelled a riveting documentary on Gaza that was to be shown nationwide. Now Frontline admits it may never show it.

Why we urgently need alternative news sources

Israel has discerning taste in news: it prefers headlines that make Palestinians sound like instigators and terrorists – and when they don’t, a few well-placed phone calls or tweets will usually do the trick.

Mainstream media headlines and airwaves would be filled with condemnations from senior UK and US politicians and prominent commentators.
