MAP ALERT!: MAP Alert: Toronto Sun lies that protester wore "mock suicide vest"
The obvious cases of racism in this article cross the line, even if it had been published initially as opinion. Please draft an email addressed to Warmington and the editor at Toronto Sun telling them that this kind of anti-Palestinian and anti-Arab reporting is a racist breach of standards.

MAP ALERT!: National Post article labelled as "news" is a clear case of Nakba denial
"The article refers to al-Nakba education as “partisan lies” and “politicized content on the Israel-Palestinian conflict.” The title of the piece, “Twistory, not history,” undermines the historical significance of the Nakba and implies that its teaching and commemoration is a distortion of historical facts. All these examples amount to Nakba denial, which is a pervasive form of anti-Palestinian racism."

MAP ALERT!: CP24 anchor calls "From the river to the sea" an antisemitic chant on-air
The chant to which she is referring is widely understood as a call for Palestinians between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea to be liberated. To label it as antisemitic in a news segment reporting on the police crackdown of a pro-Palestine demonstration is highly inappropriate, false, and offensive.

MAP ALERT!: Toronto Sun publishes offensive article that claims Iran coordinates pro-Palestine protests in the West
It is revolting that Canadian media outlets publish such pieces that don’t provide any evidence to back such outrageous claims under the label of news.

MAP ALERT!: TorStar undermines US Service man's motivations for self-immolation
The reporter does not provide context related to Israel’s military offensive in Gaza until the very end of the article. Even so, it remains incredibly vague. There is no mention of the number of Palestinians who have been killed by Israel or the current conditions in Gaza. Considering Bushnell’s self-immolation was in staunch opposition to Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, this is essential information to incorporate.

MAP ALERT!: Gazette article about SPHR's protest is a mouthpiece for pro-Israel propaganda
This article is a blatant example of the type of biased reporting about protests that we strongly oppose. Before Palestinian advocates are allowed to provide their motivations for a protest or blockade, media outlets mention how CIJA and other pro-Israel lobby groups feel about these protests.
