When the bombing took place, I saw and heard reports that there was a bombing and that Hamas was blaming Israel and that workers at the hospital had said they had been targeted in recent days. Then I heard that there was a counter claim from Israel. All reporting that I saw was timely and said that "Hamas said..." or "Israel claims..." None of that reporting is misinformation as it is not stating something as factual. It is stating that this group is claiming it. Some agencies even go so far as to say "we have been unable to independently verify either claim."

So, I am curious as to what exactly was said and how accurate it is to say that what was posted was actually misinformation because there is a difference between stating claims made that are attributed to groups and stating that something happened in a factual manner.

If you have the time here's a good news report addressing much of it.  I've found Channel 4's news to be the all around best.






As for the New York Times, I've seen varying versions of the following picture.



I know there's some mitigating at the end of the first headline, but you're smart enough to know why that headline is effed up.

As for Tlaib, here's her original Tweet;

Israel just bombed the Baptist Hospital killing 500 Palestinians (doctors, children, patients) just like that. @POTUS this is what happens when you refuse to facilitate a ceasefire & help de-escalate.

Your war and destruction only approach has opened my eyes and many… https://t.co/mZYoifT7bj
