"I urge the National Post to clarify that investigations by the UN and independent bodies have found no systemic links between UNRWA and Hamas. If you’re going to borrow the body text of syndicated press, you ought to include the section where they explicitly state that Israeli allegations against UNRWA employees remain unproven and do not rely on unverified claims without context."

The National Post published an article from the Jewish News Syndicate wire service rife with propaganda that whitewashes Israel’s genocidal campaign in the occupied Gaza Strip and West Bank. 

"A core principle of ethical journalism is independence from external influences, yet you have aligned yourself with an organization that promotes a singular, partisan narrative on Israel-Palestine. By accepting this award, you have made it clear that National Post is not a neutral publication but a politically driven platform."

"To equate HT’s ideology with violent extremism not only misrepresents their stated principles but undermines the credibility of your reporting. Such framing conflates peaceful political advocacy with terrorism, perpetuating sensationalism over substance. If we are to foster informed and meaningful public discourse, accuracy and nuance must take precedence over fear mongering rhetoric."

"It is troubling that your article fails to highlight these crucial details, instead framing Dr. Diab’s situation in a way that reinforces unproven allegations through your clickbait headline and leading paragraph."

The National Post published an opinion piece by Jesse Kline that dismisses Gaza's casualty figures as "phony," relying heavily on a single, right-wing, highly questionable study by conservative think-tank the Henry Jackson Society (HJS). This piece undermines widely accepted casualty reporting by Gaza’s Ministry of Health and fails to consider the difficulty of institutions collecting data in a genocide. Such writing amounts to genocide denial.

"We see our work as vital to the functioning of a healthy democracy, one that treats violations of journalistic ethics and standards as a profound issue deserving of extensive attention. To portray these efforts as being opposed to “free speech” or an effort to “silence” perceived opposition is a distortion that can only be made in ignorance or bad faith — I can only hope it was the former."

"The National Post uses the term 'Sharia law' without nuance or explanation which perpetuates Islamophobic tropes that paint Muslim beliefs and practices as inherently suspect."

"These distortions undermine productive discourse and pander to a narrow, one-sided narrative as Mr. Gordon conflates criticism of Israel with antisemitism. He does so by vilifying dissent as dangerous and hateful and defaming pro-Palestine Jewish groups as 'Israel haters' for 'dusting off their Jewish membership card to use as a shield against criticism, or appropriating Jewish names to lend credibility to their causes.'" 

"This is the press, an irresponsible press. It will make the criminal look like he's the victim and make the victim look like he's the criminal. If you aren't careful the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." Malcolm X. 1964
