The New York Times mentioned 'Israel' in 99.5 percent of relevant headlines and 'Palestine' in just 0.5 percent

Another good reason to boycott Western mass media…

Snip:

A media-analysis report released on 20 November titled ‘Framing Gaza’ presents data showing that major western outlets mention “Israel” far more often than “Palestine” in both headlines and article bodies.

The outlets in question mention big names, including the New York Times (NYT), BBC, Le Monde, the Globe and Mail, The Guardian, Reuters, AP, and AFP.

According to the dataset, NYT uses “Israel” in headlines 1,868 times and “Palestine” only 10 times, a ratio of 187 to 1.

The disproportionate pattern appears across the other outlets, with BBC showing 1,100 uses of “Israel” in headlines and 91 uses of “Palestine,” Le Monde showing 1,087 versus 65, and De Telegraaf showing 952 versus 65.
