Posted on April 17, 2018May 8, 2018 By rayhanania No Comments on Google discriminates against Arab news sites

Google discriminates against Arab news sites Google is one of the most important online news and information sites so when it discriminates against pro-Arab writing and promotes pro-Israel writings, there is something wrong. It’s racist, actually, and the Arab World should be aware of Google’s biases. Google needs to change. It’s about fairness, objectivity and…

Arab American journalists face industry bias

Arab American journalists face industry bias Arab American journalists continue to be targeted by racism and discrimination that dominate the mainstream American news media.

Hypocrisy at racist, anti-Arab/Muslim Chicago Sun-Times

Hypocrisy at racist, anti-Arab/Muslim Chicago Sun-Times Most mainstream American journalists love to dish it out and criticize people, but they are thinned skinned and hate to be criticized themselves, especially when they are involved in their own conflicts-of-interest that they fail to mention in their stories.
