Media coverage of Israel in the context of Hezbollah’s attacks from Lebanon has been deeply skewed and misleading.
The Iranian regime and its terrorist proxy, Hezbollah, have been waging a sustained campaign against Israel from Lebanese territory, launching thousands of attacks on communities in northern Israel. As a result, millions of Israeli civilians have lived under constant threat, daily life has been severely disrupted, and tens of thousands of residents have been forced to leave their homes.
Yet major international outlet - including AP, Reuters, The New York Times, CNN, NBC, CBC, and France 24 - have overwhelmingly focused on the Lebanese side of the story while largely ignoring the impact on Israeli civilians.
An analysis conducted between June 3-10 of 750 articles published across 14 leading international media outlets found that Israeli civilian suffering accounted for just over 1% of total coverage.
