One-sided article on Lebanon-Israel ceasefire
"Your use of “Jerusalem” to refer to the Israeli government is simply an inaccurate interpretation of the terms of the agreement. I urge you to correct this factual mistake as soon as possible."

Thanks for highlighting concerns of Surrey’s muslim community
Far too often, immigrant communities are exploited as rhetorical tools by conservative politicians who stoke fear and anti-immigrant sentiment. This is especially true regarding Arabs and Palestinians, who have been vilified during elections across North America this year. It's a relief to see journalists who still prioritize fairness and integrity.

Mavel character also evokes the 1982 Sabra and Shatila massacre
"Given these points, I urge Game Rant to revise the article to include this critical context. Acknowledging that the character's name is tied to the Sabra and Shatila massacre is essential to understanding why Sabra is perceived as a symbol of anti-Palestinian propaganda."

Thanks for clarifying "cars set afire" allegation in anti-NATO protest
"Your willingness to revisit initial assumptions is a commendable example of responsible journalism. As Hadi Hassan, a journalist with TVA reported, a tear gas grenade—a SKAT SHELL CS cartridge deployed by police—likely caused the vehicle fire. Video evidence and images by the reporter supports this possibility, and the SPVM itself stated the incident is under investigation."

Inacurracy in article over “cars lit on fire" in anti-Nato protest
"I believe the first half of your statement comes off as a generalization which misleads and sensationalizes the events on the ground rather than reflecting fair and accurate reporting. I recommend that CBC clarify in a correction on air that these rioters were part of the black bloc movement."

Factual errors about Dawson College MSA & vehicle fire in riot
"Reporting allegations as facts goes against the principles of responsible journalism. I urge you to correct this sentence to reflect that the claim of rioters setting cars alight is unproven and remains under investigation.

Re: “The left is exposing its moral inconsistencies”
"If the school had played an Arabic rendition of Baby Shark, would that, too, be deemed a “resistance song”? One could easily find Arabic songs about سلام (peace) accompanied by discussions on Gaza, given it’s a main news topic for many Arab-Canadians affected by the situation. This includes Arab students who attend Sir Robert Borden High School."

Glaring omissions and asymmetries in coverage of Israel-Lebanon
"It is remarkable that nowhere in the article does it mention the profound asymmetry in the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in the past year. An October 13, 2024 Al-Jazeera report found that since October 7, Hezbollah and its allies attacked Israel 2,370 times, whereas Israel attacked Lebanon in the same period 11,238 times."

Misleading coverage of anti-NATO protest
"According to CTV News’ stated policies, your reporting is committed to accuracy, fairness, and completeness. However, this broadcast violated these principles by conflating separate events which led to a misrepresentation of facts. You amplified unsubstantiated claims of antisemitism without clear evidence. Furthermore, you failed to present a balanced narrative by excluding relevant voices and perspectives."

Reporting on Gaza’s death toll from Israel's genocide needs correction
"The claim that the Ministry of Health "does not distinguish between combatants and civilians" is misleading and gives the impression that most Palestinians killed by Israel are combatants when, in fact, the overwhelming majority are civilians. For over a year, Israel has been systematically targeting civilian infrastructure in occupied Gaza, falsely justifying these attacks by claiming that Hamas leaders are concealing weapons—a narrative the resistance has consistently denied."
