Letter: Response to 'Antisemitism on UA Campus'

Seek truth and report it - ethical journalism should be accurate and fair, provide context, and take care not to misrepresent or oversimplify. These are a few of the principles of ethical journalism. The reporter who wrote the article, 'Antisemitism on UA Campus' provided the public with unbalanced and inaccurate coverage. In the article reporter Ellie Wolfe does not provide background or context about why the peaceful encampments happened, nor does she provide information on the demands of the peaceful protestors - which include divestment by the UA from projects and companies that support the ongoing genocide by the state of Israel in Gaza. She does not address the peaceful protestors' right to freedom of speech and expression. The facts about the genocide are well documented by human rights organizations and yet this reporter chose not to provide balance and accuracy in her reporting. Shame! Surely you can do better.
