NPR distorts the facts yet again

This morning I was awakened to NPR’s Linda Gradstein reporting as follows:

“…while Olmert was meeting President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt in trying to push through a prisoner exchange…Israeli troops in an arrest raid killed four Palestinian civilians in the Center of Ramala, wounded about 20 others, embarrassing Olmert.” — NPR

Olmert was embarrassed, but in fact the four ‘civilians’ were armed guerrilla fighters, probably from the ‘moderate’ Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah faction.

    The first thing one demands of responsible Journalism is accuracy. NPR fails the test often. In fact their reports are often slanted deliberately against Israel. Good old Radical Leftism in control of Public Radio. Surprise.Surprise.
