Anti Israel media bias at the NY Times

Questions for ‘The New York Times’


"A story on May 7 by Bronner deceptively cited “Nancy Kricorian, a New York City novelist and poet who visited here for the first time as part of the Palestinian [writers’] festival.”

The “novelist and poet,” who was quoted as “infuriated” at “military checkpoints and the separation barrier,” was presented as an apolitical literary soul newly encountering Middle East realities.

Actually, Kricorian is the New York coordinator of the far-left Code Pink organization and promotes stridently anti-Israel political positions, including the organization’s “Stolen Beauty” boycott campaign against the Ahava company, creator and marketer of Dead Sea beauty products."
