| The Purpose of Palestine Media Watch |
The purpose of Palestine Media Watch is to fight
anti-Palestinian bias in the US media and to call for giving Palestinian
views greater room for expression. Palestine Media Watch is a grass-roots
media watch group stablished on October 5, 2000 to help fight US
media bias against Palestinians via direct action: writing letters
and making phone calls. Our strength is in the commitment of our
dedicated members - our gadflies - who day after day, through their
informed letters
to newspapers, work for a more balanced, more humane, and more informed
portrayal of the Middle East conflict. |
