Updated with Correction: Another Biased Headline by Reuters

Reuters has corrected the skewed headline we wrote about yesterday. See below.

Aug. 24, 2:30 PM: How does a Reuters headline describe a situation where a Palestinian stone-thrower pursued by the Israeli soldiers exits his car to stab one of the soldiers in the neck before being shot by the wounded soldier?

This sort of reporting that reverses the perpetrator and victim to whitewash Palestinian terrorism is what gives many news agencies their reputation for unprofessional, biased reporting.

CAMERA has contacted Reuters regarding the skewed headline.

UPDATE, Aug. 25

Reuters thanked CAMERA for its communication regarding the headline, apologized and corrected. Below is the corrected headline:

Hey Reuters did you want to mention that the Palestinian STABBED the Israeli soldier first? No, probably not.

An informative headline would have been: "Israeli Soldier Shoots His Arab Stabber."

Pure anti-Semitic bias.

another dumb headline. Why not just report the truth? Oh! Your genetic antiJew brain washing is showing again! Needs a serious consideration of a lobotomy for cure!
