MSNBC apologizes for 'completely wrong' maps of Israel | The Times of Israel
http://www.timesofisrael.com/msnbc-apologizes-for-completely-wrong-maps-of-israel/ * Inaccurate Maps On Link * ISRAEL & THE REGION 'It's very complex to accurately cover the Middle East' MSNBC apologizes for ‘completely wrong’ maps of Israel US network says it regrets mistake showing ‘Palestinian loss of land,’ noticed error after live segment aired By RAOUL WOOTLIFF October 20, 2015 The US television network MSNBC apologized Monday for using maps that were “not factually accurate” in a segment last week on the violence sweeping Israel. Anchor Kate Snow and Middle East correspondent Martin Fletcher admitted that the maps gave “the wrong impression” of the region and did not reflect the demographic reality. Last Thursday during a live on-air discussion between Snow and Fletcher, a series of maps were displayed entitled “Palestinian loss of land 1946 – present.” The first map pertaining to 1946 labeled the entire territory as “Palestine” with the vast majority of the map colored green, denoting Palestinian control. The following maps dated “UN Plan 1947,” “1949-1967” and “Present” showed Palestinian-controlled territory decreasing dramatically in size over time. The maps and subsequent analysis gave the impression that a state of Palestine had existed in 1946 when in fact the area was under British Mandatory rule until May 14, 1948. Screenshot of maps labeled “Palestine” displayed during MSNBC coverage of ongoing unrest in Israel, October 15, 2015 (YouTube) As the maps were displayed Fletcher told Snow, “I must say it’s pretty shocking when you present it in this way.” What is clearly shows is that if there’s no peace agreement between the Palestinians and Israel, more of those green areas, more of that Palestinian land will be eaten up by Jewish settlements,” he said. In Monday’s apology, Snow told viewers that the mistake had become apparent after the segment aired and the network regretted using the maps. “The bottom line is it was completely wrong; there was no state called Palestine,” Fletcher said. In an attempt to explain the mistake, Snow and Fletcher went on to say how it highlighted the challenge of reporting on Israel. “It’s very complex to accurately cover the Middle East,” Snow said. Fletcher seemed to argue that inflamed passions in the region made accurate reporting hard. “Well, the passions are so high. It’s such a tiny area,” he said. “You know, you’ve got this one tiny piece of land which is basically the Jews and the Palestinians – the Jews and the Muslims both believe that God gave them the land. It’s that one piece of land for two peoples. That’s what the conflict has been all about for a very long time.” ------------- Accidentally on purpose is more like.(Because that is what Obama wants & the administration has been referring to it as 'a state' for months.. Well words won't make it true. There was NO 'state of Palestine' and there is 'NO state of Palestine' Just like there is NO 'Nation of Islam'... either. Hhhaa. How many National Parks & Museums do they have... ? The USA did not give Texas to Mexico just because people moved in. Any more than Canada would give up territory because Americans moved in.. It is the same damn thing. Wake up people & smell the coffee & see the word play... & apparently map play. |

Msnbc needs to apologise for being a waste of airtime. Not just PMSNBC my friend. There isn't a corporate network media out there that's worth any effort to view. Nothing more than propaganda preaching one sides agenda or the other and none based on fact. They killed journalism when they killed the Kennedy bros and MLK |

Why would MSNBC apologize? It's well known the encroachment beyond the original borders is illegal, MSNBC should apologize for Israels expansionist government??? Absurd!
Israel's Netanyahu stirs trouble by linking late Muslim leader to Holocaust He is truly disgusting, the holocaust was Hitlers and Hitlers alone. A German government spokesman, asked about Netanyahu's comments, said the Holocaust was Germany's responsibility and there was no need for another view on it. Now he's distorting historical records? This man needs to disappear and quick |

you need to read up on this... the holocaust was Hitlers project, but the Jew hating muslims were right there on Hitlers side, cheering the whole time... where did Hitler get his oil from? More lies! Such garbage No Sir, YOU need to read up on it! where did Hitler get his oil from? From about the start of 1940 to June 1941, the reich got much of its oil from Russia. After barbarossa commenced, the Germans were essentially limited to the Romanian output at Ploesti, and fuel produced synthetically. a) Synthesisation from Coal b) Baku c) Romania d) Aruba (via Spain) |
