Ten journalists who have covered the war on Gaza for two of the world’s leading news networks, CNN and the BBC , have revealed the inner workings of those outlets’ newsrooms.

They allege pro-Israel bias in coverage, systematic double standards and frequent violations of journalistic principles.

In several cases, they accused senior newsroom figures of failing to hold Israeli officials to account.

In one instance at CNN , false Israeli propaganda was put on air despite advance warnings from staff members.

BBC presenter Maryam Moshiri says there was no balance in what was going on.

She said that “now and again” Israeli guests were vetted, but there was no balance’ in what happened.

Experts and veteran journalists have increasingly accused top Western media outlets of maintaining a pro-Israel bias.
