A TownHall review gave a thumbs up to Stephanie Gutmann’s book, “The Other War: Israelis, Palestinians and the Struggle for Media Supremacy:
“The Other War” isn’t a sterile, number crunching analysis of news headlines and journalists’ political predilections. Instead, it has the refreshing feel of a documentary….
Ms. Gutmann lays the blame where it mostly belongs: on moral relativist, reflexively anti-Israel journalists. Sometimes, though, the biased coverage isn’t entirely their fault. Palestinians with guns, Ms. Gutmann writes, don’t allow themselves to be photographed if they can help it. (Imagine the response if Israel adopted that policy). And often, the Palestinians won’t haul out the guns until nighttime. During the day, when the cameras are clicking, it’s all sticks and stones.
