IMDb, the world’s main film and television database, recently replaced the name Israel with the term “the Palestinian Territories” or “the Occupied Palestinian Territories.”
Plot twist: It’s Haaretz that exposed this.
This kind of thing – IMDb’s conduct – is unfortunately becoming more prevalent across a wide range of industry websites, so I am not particularly surprised.
My only question is whether Haaretz is reporting this as a condemnation of IMDb’s conduct…or to applaud it.
