Washington Post Headline Creates False Equivalence Between Israeli and Russian Strikes in Syria | Honest Reporting | Honest Reporting
In its headline above a recent article detailing foreign military activities in Syria, The Washington Post created a false equivalence between Israel’s defensive strikes and Russia’s offensive campaigns within the war-torn country.
By titling the piece ‘Russian and Israeli planes hit Syria in separate strikes, kill at least 10,’ the publication is giving readers the impression that Russia and Israel struck similar targets in Syria and the results of both strikes carry the same moral weight.
