    Every one of these articles has a quote including a weasel word like “likely” and then the headline acts like it’s definitive proof…

      The best reasoning I saw was on CNN comparing known Israeli strikes to the hospital with the conclusion basically “if it had been Israel it would have been many times worse.”

        Doesn’t mean all these headlines aren’t bald faced lies especially knowing most will just read the headline

      What exactly do you mean by “these articles?” This seems less like an issue with Reuters’ reporting , and more like nitpicking by you to muddy the waters.

        What exactly do you mean by “these articles?”

        All the ones that say “______ says Israel not responsible”

        I’ve seen lots, but the quote is always non-committal and the headline portrays 100% confidence.

        Even in the summaries it’s presented like that. But it never matches the direct quote.

        It’s not pedantic, the difference is substantial

          The facts you seem to require only exist in the laws of physics - everywhere else you have to work with likelihoods. Especially as Hamas wouldn’t even admit it, if caught red handed.

          Do you know why I am saying this? There were PRO-Hamas Demonstrations in my country, where the murder of the Israeli Civilians on 7th October was called „Fake News“ - while on the other Hand Hamas Terrorists created First Person Videos of their atrocities and they brag about it on the Internet.

      Hey guys, is there any news coming out of Gaza that isn’t about this fucking hospital? I’m sure there are a million other things going on over there that are worth reporting on, but instead my front page has been back and forth bullshit about this hospital for days now. And before that it was nothing but beheaded babies that maybe weren’t actually beheaded but no they totally were.

      Can we get some news about this conflict that isn’t beheaded fucking babies or this goddamn hospital? Y’all motherfuckers bitch about reddit but at least the posts are varied over there.

        Good idea. Why don’t you post something and stop complaining? This topic is still relevant.
