Yesterday on the excellent Media Minded weblog, I posted a comment suggesting that even though Chris Hedges has very mean-spirited and far left world view, it’s possible that he could still produce good quality, fair journalism. After all, I argued, the writers for NR and TNR have strong views, and they usually do good journalistic work. Well, I might have been right about Hedges in theory, but I was wrong in fact. Hedges’ reporting from Israel was heavily slanted, inaccurate, and misleading, as detailed in three reports from CAMERA.
