The news network has praised the Gaza-based producer, a "glaring inconsistency" that "raises serious questions about CBS's editorial standards," CAMERA said.
(Oct. 16, 2024 / JNS) Already under fire for telling staff not to refer to Jerusalem as the Israeli capital and for criticizing its reporter’s tough questions about anti-Israel bias for Ta-Nehisi Coates, CBS has a more extensive problem of Jew-hatred, according to the Arabic department at the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis.
Marwan Al-Ghoul, who has long covered the region, was “praised by the network last week for his ‘resolve’ in covering the conflict,” but the CBS Gaza-based producer, “has a troubling social media history,” CAMERA told JNS. “His posts include vile antisemitism—denying the humanity of Jews—open support for terrorism, calls for ‘permanent resistance’ and predictions about the demise of both the United States and Israel.”
“This glaring inconsistency raises serious questions about CBS‘s editorial standards,” stated Jonah Cohen, communications director for CAMERA.
