Haaretz publisher apologizes for paper’s removal of Israelis from story on kids killed in Gaza fighting
Haaretz front page May 27, 2021, headlined: "67 children were killed in Gaza. That's the price of the war". (via twitter)
The publisher of the Haaretz daily apologizes after the paper ran a New York Times article about Palestinian and Israeli children killed during the recent fighting in Gaza, but removed the Israeli children from the story that appeared on its front page this morning.
In a tweet, Amos Schocken attributed the “serious mistake” to an unspecified editor “who explained that we had already reported on their cases extensively and in real time.”
Schocken says the version of the story that Haaretz published “harmed the manner in which the New York Times portrayed what happened in the war to children from both sides.”
He apologizes to the left-leaning newspaper’s readers and says the online story version of the story will be corrected.
