A media conspiracy, or just bad writing?


The News Behind the News questions the motives behind Megan Goldin, a Reuters correspondant, who wrote an article about violence in Israel. In another article, Megan writes about how Israeli officials have not pulled back in their raids on Palestinian land. She quotes officials and uses parentheses instead of brackets to mark words implied but not spoken. I performed a search on her name to see if she made similar errors and much to my surprise, stumbled upon the conspiracy mentioned above.
