"Unless you are able to produce evidence supporting your claim, I am urging you to promptly correct this seemingly false claim that perpetuates negative stereotypes about Palestinians and their allies." Continue reading

"Several tweets about the event, along with a statement from Law Students for Palestine at Mcgill, confirm that the lecture was indeed held as scheduled, debunking the false claims of its cancellation. We strongly urge you to correct this error and issue a clarification that the McGill lecture was indeed held as planned, ensuring accuracy in your reporting."

"If there is substantiated evidence to support these severe allegations against Albanese, then it is your obligation to present it transparently. Otherwise, this article amounts to little more than an attempt to vilify a UN human rights official solely for her outspoken support of Palestinian rights—a tactic that qualifies as anti-Palestinian racism (APR) as rigorously defined by the Arab Canadian Lawyers Association (ACLA)."

"You attribute responsibility for the deaths of Israeli civilians and soldiers on October 7 to Hamas militants, yet you use passive voice when stating that “the war has killed 43,000 in occupied Gaza,” failing to attribute responsibility to Israel’s ongoing campaign in Gaza that has resulted in over 43,000 Palestinian deaths."

"Neglecting this context minimizes the voices of Arab communities in North America. Unfortunately, this oversight, whether intentional or not, is part of a broader media trend in Canada including at the CBC. Canadian media is increasingly erasing Arab narratives and their impact on civil society in Canada and the US." Continue reading

"I particularly appreciate that you included Co-owner Ramsey Zeid’s comments, where he described this incident as “a hate crime” and emphasized that “it’s all about intimidation and silencing" them. Unfortunately, when Palestinians are given a voice in the media, their stories are often buried at the very end of articles, making it easy for readers to overlook their perspectives."

"I appreciate Mr. Assaly’s decision to also spotlight this incident amid coverage of other racist statements made by Tony Hinchcliffe at the rally. Rather than leaving his APR remarks unaddressed as well as the awful statement made by Rudy Giuliani ignored, Mr. Assaly took the time to thoroughly expose all of the harmful statements made that day."

"However, the NDP must recognize that embracing a pro-Palestine stance is not just about securing votes; it is about standing on the right side of history and opposing complicity in Israel’s genocide in occupied Gaza. One does not need to be Palestinian to oppose Israel’s ethnic cleansing." Continue reading
