Sky News Digital Editor Jack Houghton has criticised “ignorant” journalists for allowing Hamas terrorists to “write their headlines”.
Mr Houghton said it was"increasingly important" to attribute information correctly as the war between Israel and terror group Hamas intensifies.
Mr Houghton's remarks come after certain newsrooms quickly blamed Israel for the death of hundreds of people following an explosion at a Gaza hospital. "We now know the hospital itself was not bombed, but instead, it was a car park, and many military experts say the damage of the car park is more consistent with a death toll of 50, rather than 500."Sky News Digital Editor Jack Houghton has slammed The New York Times for its decision to re-rehire Hitler-praising journalist Soliman Hijjy.
The New York Times was scrutinised after the publisher quickly blamed and accused Israel of blowing up a hospital in the Gaza Strip, killing 500 people.
