As bombs rained down on Gaza in October 2023, images of mass death and destruction gripped the world, and openly genocidal statements from Israeli leaders foretold the magnitude of horrors to come. But mainstream media was quick to downplay, obscure, and repackage an emerging campaign of extermination into a slick “war on terror” framework.
We discuss the US media’s role in enabling one of the most devastating campaigns of mass killing in modern memory. Adam unpacks how major outlets like The New York Times, CNN, and MSNBC systematically sanitized Israel’s war crimes, hid the US’s central role, and dehumanized the Palestinian people. We also discuss the ways in which liberal media continues to provide cover in the context of the US-Israeli war against Iran.
