Thursday’s HonestReporting communique included a critique of an article by Tony Parkinson, international editor of Melbourne’s The Age.

In his article, Parkinson made an outrageous comparison between Sheikh Yassin and Leon Klinghoffer, the wheelchair-bound American tourist brutally murdered by Palestinian terrorists nearly 20 years ago.

Parkinson wrote to HonestReporting, complaining that we misrepresented his article in our critique, which he termed “an orchestrated attempt at disinformation, vilification and defamation.” Moreover, Parkinson believes nobody actually read his article, but rather fired off angry emails based only upon the few lines in our communique.
