First western headline that doesn’t mince

[-] HK65@sopuli.xyz 28 points 1 week ago

Well, it still uses "fatally shot" instead of "killed". And there is evidently no reason to do so, since they use "killed" in the article enough.

Even still. Most are like, 'Woman (allegedly American) no longer alive due to visiting West Bank, claim some'.

Most headlines don't even say who killed her.

Tbf, that BBC one is garbage that makes it sound like the IDF shooting was concurrent with but not necessarily the cause of her death.

[-] HK65@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 week ago

Well, the BBC headline avoids saying it was the Israelis killing her, they just say that the killing and the shots happened concurrently, but it fails to establish cause-effect.

Some people are desperate to paint themselves as victims of the media.

“They did their job correctly this time” doesn’t erase a lifetime of them failing to do so. For every professional example like this I see many more that do the opposite.
