Qatari news network Al Jazeera is stridently denying any link to Gaza-based journalist Abdallah Aljamal, amid unverified rumors that hostage Noa Argamani had been held at his home in central Gaza’s Nuseirat.
According to various rumors, some of which have been picked up by Hebrew-language media with varying levels of credulity, Argamani was held at the home of Dr. Ahmed Aljamal and his son Abdallah. They also claim that Abdallah is an employee of Al-Jazeera.

Perfect example of how suspect MBFC is.
Times of Israel has such immense bias in favor of the IDF and the fascist apartheid regime, and such lax fact checking on the one subject people outside Israel read it for that it’s not AT ALL credible and MBFC, being basically the hobby of a conservative Zionist, rates it left of center and highly factual 🤦
Eta examples from the “detailed report”:
Both examples of absolutely atrocious levels of bias on the part of MBFC.
Fox news only being mixed rating is another big reason
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/fox-news-bias/
Fox News has a mixed score for factual reporting…
But a “Low Credibility Rating”
For the made up rating mbfc makes then puts no reasoning in their actual post.
MBFC tries to make itself credible then does shit like that where makes it fit what they want. like ranking higher pro Zionist publications
And they are subject to military censorship!

The bias is strong in the case of TOI. This is extreme bordering on [email protected] territory.
And still MBFC rates them center right rather than far right and the factuality “mixed” rather than “low” or “very low”.
My favorite is the only source listed in every article is just IDF, totally credible
It’s all relative. Want to see something from a further right Israeli source?
