The Los Angeles Times has outflanked CNN as the mainstream Western media which has adopted the most fantastical, most journalistically-challenged conclusion about the unsolved fatal shooting of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. In one case, a well-known Palestinian journalist was shot and killed during an Israeli raid on a West Bank city; the case has not been resolved, but some Palestinians blame Israel for the killing. CAMERA last week contacted senior Times editors pointing out that — as their own reporters acknowledge — Abu Akleh’s case has not been solved. Given that the case is not resolved, on what basis does The Times impugn the Israeli government? The @latimes actually reports that the *Israeli government* was “involved” in killing of Al Jazeera’s Shireen Abu Akleh à la Khashoggi.
