Following Bombed Kids, NBC Pulls Reporter For Reporting Truth

"Ayman Mohyeldin, the NBC News correspondent who personally witnessed yesterday's killing by Israel of four Palestinian boys on a Gazan beach and who has received widespread praise for his brave and innovative coverage of the conflict, has been told by NBC executives to leave Gaza immediately. According to an NBC source upset at his treatment, the executives claimed the decision was motivated by "security concerns" as Israel prepares a ground invasion, a claim repeated to me by an NBC executive. But late yesterday, NBC sent another correspondent, Richard Engel, along with an American producer who has never been to Gaza and speaks no Arabic, into Gaza to cover the ongoing Israeli assault (both Mohyeldin and Engel speak Arabic).

Following Bombed Kids, NBC Pulls Reporter For Reporting Truth



Not looking good for NBC. Security concerns eh? Instead of pulling out all their people they just replaced him, probably with someone who will not be reporting any dirt on Israel. We all know, whether we like it or not, that Israel does no wrong.

So what we have here is another prime example why you don't trust the MSM, in this case NBC.

Events like these only fuel the conspiracy fire that Israel owns and operates our media.

I had not seen this. Interesting, although really no surprise considering what you point out. Here's the video, OP. Yours is not working.

They got him from Al Jazeera in 2011
His mother is a Palestinian

Perhaps the reporter is the one with a bias and not the Network. Both questions should be asked.

Here is the father of the four dead boys.

Biased for reporting what he and several others saw.
The cognitive dissonance is strong in you!

Bah, he can be biased towards Palestine all he wants!

This whole ordeal is sickening.

Israel should print millions of Hebrew Bibles, make an island and go live on it.

I have to laugh, people here on ats go on about RT or press tv as being biased and unreliable, then things like this happen to show the bias in western media, all you hear is crickets. Thanks for the post Swills

Looks like he is saying "gimme a god damned vest, strap it on, alawawawawa ak bar".

Seriously though, doesn't the IDF consider the blowback when stuff like this happens?

Brilliant point, I know for damn sure if it was one of my boys killed like that I'd be out for blood and so would the majority of my family. They are just creating more and more resistance every time the kill innocent men women and children.

At the same time, Palestinians are doing the same thing lobbing rockets into Israel. I understand the death toll is fewer, but it's not helping their cause.

...and you got this...

A couple weeks ago Hamas kidnaps and murders 3 teenage boys (link) and I'm sure every IDF soldier marching towards Gaza has got that on their mind.

Bottom line is both sides are wrong. They need to resolve this conflict without violence, if not, don't complain when your people are dying around you. That's what you get when you sign up for violent resolution.

Just to be accurate, he is the father of 1 of the boys, not all 4. According to a comment in there they were all cousins. I hadn't read anywhere that they were all brothers so that took me off guard.

An American producer ??

Wag the dog...anyone ??

I have to disagree with this as Hamas denied ever being involved with that, they usually take credit for something like that, they are terrorists yes but are pretty forthcoming when they do things like that. Also the phone call that one of the kidnapped victims made the kidnapper is heard speaking in Hebrew, Israel offered no proof at all regarding this, can't link the video now on my phone but look at my profile and the last thread I made and the video in the OP. Lots of info on it regarding what's happening now.

Yes, how dare he commit the crime of journalism!?!
You're right, he reported on what was right in front of him. This is a terrible decision by NBC.

Well, I trusted this (anonymous) source on the internet, shame on me.. Nevertheless, I can feel his sorrow!

War is hell.

Didn't Israel warn everyone bombs where coming and they should evacuate?

He told the story as it was. How is that bias?

Other reporters saw the same thing. The videos show the same thing and do not lie.

Are you saying it didn't happen?

a reply to: Pladuim

Where are they going to evacuate to? They are trapped on a tiny piece of land. Also there was no real way to escape these bombing campaigns. These kids were in an area that should have been safe, but they were intentionally targeted. There is a reason the foreign journalists were nearby.. because this was a safer area. It's resort hotels and big open beaches with good visibility.

a reply to: boncho

Actually they death toll is almost non existent (1 compared to over 200 in gaza including around 200 civilians with 40 of them being children).

They lob rockets to get the worlds attention becaue otherwise they would be forgotten in their oppression and open air prisons while Israel abuses their rights and steals their land.

Also there is more evidence to suggest the kidnappers of those three Israeli boys were actually Israeli kidnappers than Palestinians. Then you have kidnappers burn a Palestinian boy alive. There is a reason they caught one so quickly and not the other. That being that the 911 call they tried to suppress showed the kidnappers spoke perfect Hebrew and listened to Israeli talk radio and if they caught those guys that kidnapped the three israelis the story would probably be very bad for Israel.

a reply to: boncho
Actually Hamas took no credit for the kidnapping and killing of those teens. Disgustingly though, they did praise those who did.
