AP Headline Casts Palestinian Attackers as Victims, Ignores Dead Israelis
(CAMERA) After a Palestinian stabbing attack and the police response killed two Israelis and two Palestinians on Wednesday, an Associated Press headline ignored the Israeli deaths, and cast the attackers as victims. The headline read: "2 Palestinians Killed Following Stabbing Attack in Jerusalem." It failed to mention the Israeli victims and neglected to specify that Palestinians were the attackers, and instead conveyed to readers that it was Palestinians who were the victims. After CAMERA contacted AP, they revised the headline.
