The Guardian published five articles in the last few days that humanize Gazans in a way I hadn’t expected to see from a premier and globally-recognized news agency.
The paper is already known for its liberal leanings and for its relatively nuanced coverage of Palestine-Israel. But to see this kind of quality reportage and commentar is refreshing.
Perhaps it is part of a greater trend in which television broadcasting seems to move closer to a hardline pro-Israel stance while print journalism inches away. And perhaps The Guardian’s humanizing coverage helped counter the Israeli military’s gamification of its Gaza assault.
There will hopefully come a time when Palestinians won’t have to feel so surprised to find favorable, common-sense, or even objective coverage of their struggles. Until then, here is “The Guardian Five”.
Note: The articles are not ranked or ordered in any way. Also, this is not to say that they are totally and entirely perfect.
well done guardian newspaper keep up the good and fair work.
