Amir Mizroch, editor of the English edition of Israel Hayom and an ace with Twitter (find him at @amirmizroch), make a great spot on an AP story published in The Daily Star of Lebanon. While the original AP story about Israel’s national unity government appeared with a Jerusalem dateline, The Daily Star altered the dateline to read Occupied Jerusalem.
