Let me get this straight. If Israel or the US says they killed a terrorist, it's the job of the press to report that they're lying and these terrorists were really civilians? Now if a terrorist organization stages a murder scene the press has a responsibility to report it as truth, because they're the underdogs.
If you actually read the article you would see the press is publishing and even helping to stage terrorist propaganda. Staged news is never acceptable, and government propaganda should never be disguised as news. In other words they should question both sides equally, not just automatically take the side of the smaller player.
