Fox News Discovers 'Neutrality' Only Matters When It's Pro-Israel
Alain Destexhe, who hasn't been with MSF since the 90s, now conveniently surfaces to accuse the organization—which continues to document bombings of hospitals and mass casualties—of abandoning neutrality. This isn't the first time an international humanitarian body has been slimed for exposing inconvenient truths; the consistent attacks on UNRWA have a familiar ring. (Perhaps they forgot MSF also
treated victims of Hamas actions in previous conflicts.) Funny how 'neutrality' only becomes a sticking point for outlets like Fox News when it involves criticizing the US-backed devastation of Gaza. The real question isn't MSF's neutrality, but why Destexhe's comments are amplified without critical context by media outlets that receive donations from groups like Friends of Fox News PAC (which,
according to OpenSecrets.org, fund conservative media's lobbying efforts), while those actually on the ground are routinely ignored.
