Yeah, I'm sure those beacons of free-speech are not biased in any way
Btw i take your lack of other sources of violence against detainees as proof that thaz's just BS made up by aljazeera
Yeah, let's trust Israelis, who claim Palestinians don't even exist. That's for sure not fake news /s
By the way, those 1.5 million people killed in Iraq due to "weapons of mass destruction" were really not fake news /s
Yeah, because only those two sides exist and there isn‘t a plethora of independent and unbiased media /s
Hehe. To be true, I gave up on the idea that media are telling the truth: Either they won't tell because they don't want, or they themselves don't know better, or because they are not aware of their bias, or whatever reason.
I see media now as lawyers.
As in a court hearing, each presents the case of his clients (ther countries, their CEOs, their ideologies, whatever).
The mission of the judge is to put the opposing lawyers in contradiction, and each lawyer has the right to contradict everything the other side says: contradict the witnesses, the framing, the questions, everything.
Only then can the judge have a base to decide their mind.
We, news consumers, ar the judges in this analogy: We have to read contradicting media (and I mean not CNN vs FOX, but Western vs non western), to have a minimal chance of expanding the picture and filter what makes sense or not, and see what each lawyer is hiding about his client.
Only then we have a minimal chance of taking a well informed decision.
Hehe. To be true, I gave up on the idea that media are telling the truth: Either they won’t tell because they don’t want, or they themselves don’t know better, or because they are not aware of their bias, or whatever reason.
That is just straight up wrong. And dangerous. You're effectively saying that you willfully watch arabic Propaganda and don't care. All that because you wrongfully believe that somehow other media aren't unbiased?
Even if we assume that Media is inherently flawed, aljazeera still is Propaganda that utilizes Framing to push a narrative. It doesn't even TRY to be unbiased. But sure, go on ahead about "but other side bad too"
Do you have any Arabic, Israeli (or at least Jewish) friends to compare what the press say so you know which one is lying?
I have my suspections about Al Jazeera (for instance, they never point any mistake of Hamas, and other stuff they talk about some countries I know), but what they say matches well with stuff I know from people who live in Arabic countries.
Al Jazeera is a good source to get out of Israeli/Western press strong bias, which even pretends that history starts on 7th of October and hides the fact that Israel:
a) Killed 450 people in West Bank until October 6th
b) is committing the highest rate land robbery in West Bank since 1993.
I also read Times of Israel and Haaretz to get a broader picture

Tell me you have no arguments without telling me you have no arguments.
Instead of addressing the critics and their points, you go on ad hominem attacks on your western superiority high horse instead because you have no arguments. Otherwise you would've addressed these "BS claims" already. Oh look at you how civilized you are in comparison to those barbarians, am I right?
alright then: Explain to me how a country that hates Israel so much that it doesn't have diplomatic relations with it or even recognizes it can be unbiased. Go ahead.

explain to me why we should even remotely take them serious
Why should they have relations with Israel? Palestine is recognized by 140 UN member countries too and yet Germany or the US don't have a diplomatic relationship with it. Should we stop listening to the US, the UK or Germany now? We should straight up stop posting anything about Palestine if it's coming from BBC, DW, or whatever other publication with strong ties to the state because the countries they reside in and by which they are (fully or partially) owned don't recognize Palestine.
