HonestReporting Canada is conducting media bias workshops teaching individuals how to identify media bias against Israel.
Drawing from compelling examples of bias from the domestic Canadian and international media, HR Canada teaches how to successfully combat media bias by leveraging the media through proper complaints processes, mobilizing grassroots action, activism, and advocacy work, and effective letter writing
More than 250 workshops across Canada have already addressed issues such as:
- Media Bias and the Middle East: Is news coverage of the Middle East really biased? If so, in whose favour? An exploration of the "bias" claim from several perspectives – including the journalists'.
- Media Literacy 101: Identifying and Countering Unfair Coverage: An activist's guide to countering media bias against Israel: What is it, how can I identify it, and what can I do about it?
- An Activist's Guide To Media Relations: A "how-to" primer on influencing the news media and impacting Canadians' perceptions of Israel and the Middle East: Monitoring the media, writing letters, calling editors and organizing campaigns.
