"The article disproportionately favors the judge of the ruling against the encampment at U of T, Markus Koehnen, as you significantly give more space for him to articulate his views, with his quotes prominently featured. In contrast, pro-Palestine perspectives are confined to just three paragraphs. It is irresponsible to publish an article about the pro-Palestine encampment while burying the perspectives of the proponents of the encampment. More students involved in the encampment could and should have been contacted and quoted."

"Holding a Palestinian flag and cheering against Israel's apartheid state does not make you a Nazi. Drawing these types of parallels and demonizing solidarity with Palestine is a clear case of anti-Palestinian racism." Continue reading

"Palestinians are being forcibly displaced to areas that Israel deemed safe just to get attacked again and forcibly displaced again. As reported by BBC, “many have been displaced five or six times” already. As early as January, the UN Humanitarian chief, Martin Griffiths, called Gaza 'unhabitable.'" Continue reading

"I felt that Mr. Cnockaert’s article on unfinished Parliamentary business (“Foreign interference bill passes, but online harms and citizenship bills left on hold until House comes back”) gave a very one-sided perspective of the Online Harms Act, Bill C-63. By choosing to interview only Shimon Fogel, CEO of the pro-Israel Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) about the bill, the article falsely suggested the bill was an open-and-shut case of 'good law' vs. 'evil Internet content.'"

"As rightly pointed out by Amira Elghawaby, the federal government’s Special Representative on Combating Islamophobia, this incident is a blatant attempt to portray Canadian Muslims and communal prayer as threatening and dangerous. Such content is undeniably Islamophobic and contributes to the growing climate of fear and hostility towards the Muslim community in Canada." Continue reading

"In terms of improving the coverage, I would simply have suggested, first, that Mr. Carpenter seek a direct quote from a representative of the protesting group. Second, I would have suggested that Mr. Carpenter seek a supportive comment from another player. He quotes a bystander, who questions the group’s tactics, but Carpenter does not seek comment/input from other groups which would be supportive." Continue reading

"Mujahid Abadi was not “stuck” on the hood of an Israeli army vehicle; he was shot, beaten, and tied to an Israeli army jeep. CBC News regularly repeats Israel’s claims that Hamas uses Palestinians in Gaza as ‘human shields’ without tangible evidence." Continue reading

"The current headline downplays Israel’s actions and doesn’t capture the core angle of the story. A significant portion of the article centers around Dr. Mohammed Abu Salmiya, the head of Gaza’s Al-Shifa hospital, who claims he was tortured, not merely abused, by the Israelis. CJPME demands that the headline be corrected to emphasize Dr. Mohammed Abu Salmiya’s claims of torture." Continue reading

"Under international law, Israel is considered an occupying power and has a responsibility of letting aid in. On top of it, Israel has closed border crossings, which is the only effective and efficient way to get aid despite multiple international calls asking Israel to open them." Continue reading

"By not describing it as such, you are presenting it as representative of the Jewish community and their concerns, which is not fair or accurate to the Jewish human rights activists who are against antisemitism but yet critical of the government of Israel and its oppression and occupation of the Palestinian people."
