Ruling Challenges Media Stance on Palestine

Major media face a reassessment of their Israel coverage after the ICJ judgement, writes Mick Hall.

“I don’t think the ICJ presents an imperative for media outlets like ABC to change their language. The Australian state is a close ally of the U.S. and Israel and their economic interests are deeply interwoven. Western states and media institutions, contrary to their own assertions, are largely anti-democratic in nature and strive, first and foremost, to protect the political and economic interests of their ruling class.”
