"Gross argues the reason for the large number of journalists in Israel and Palestine is due to Israel's Jewish nature." Cited to [1]. Aside from being rather awkwardly worded, this article is behind a paywall and therefore it's impossible to verify that it says exactly the above. Please find another source or something. §FreeRangeFrogcroak02:09, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
To make this more clear, if the source says what the quote says then I have no problem with including it. But biographies in general topical areas like these where the Jewish/Palestinian conflict tends to intrude need to be squeaky clean. I cannot verify what the source says, and thus I must contest its inclusion. §FreeRangeFrogcroak02:17, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Other veteran journalists who share his view include Tom Gross, a commentator on INTERNATIONAL affairs and a former reporter on the Middle East for the Sunday Telegraph;" Why journalists say Israeli-Arab reporting is 'rigged’
The English edition of Haaretz today runs a shortened version of the interview with former AP Jerusalem correspondent Matti Friedman and myself, about international media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. As I noted in a dispatch last week, the piece originally appeared in Hebrew, published on September 5 in the Marker magazine (which forms part of the Haaretz weekend edition):
“One should not forget that the media is full of stereotypes and mistakes about many issues. Yet when every allowance has been made, the sustained bias against Israel is, I believe, in a league of its own,” Gross told Haaretz". - See more at: A HAARETZ INTERVIEW, CORRECTED
