BBC Pro-Israel? Don’t Make Me Laugh

HonestReporting editor Simon Plosker got op-ed space in the Jerusalem Post to debunk a recent commentary suggesting that the BBC and Al-Jazeera (!?) are biased in Israel's favor.

Plosker was responding to a recent commentary in The Guardian by Sharif Nashashibi, who authored a "study" for the London-based Arab Media Watch (pdf format). Nashashibi is AMW's chairman.
