CBC leaked emails tell reporters to not use ‘terrorist’ in Hamas coverage: ‘This is opinion, not fact’
CBC executive told reporters that terrorism ‘remains heavily politicized’
Israel has ‘moved from containment to eradication’ of Islamic extremists: Ambassador Ron Prosor
Ron Prosor, Israel’s ambassador to Germany, discusses Israel’s strategy to handle Hamas after attacks devastate the Holy Land.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation gave strict guidelines to reporters on using the term “terrorist” in their coverage of Israel’s war with Hamas, leaked emails reveal.
“Do not refer to militants, soldiers or anyone else as ‘terrorists.’ The notion of terrorism remains heavily politicized and is part of the story,” CBC’s director of journalistic standards, George Achi, wrote in an email to employees on Saturday.
The CBC executive instructed journalists to make sure audiences understand that when quoting someone using this term, they are stating “opinion.”
“Even when quoting/clipping a government or a source referring to fighters as ‘terrorists,’ we should add context to ensure the audience understands this is opinion, not fact,” he added.
U.S.-based group “StopAntisemitism” first shared the leaked email on X.
CBC journalists were also urged to avoid calling 2005 “the end” of Israeli occupation.
“Please do not describe 2005 as ‘the end of the occupation’ as Israel has maintained control over airspace, seafront, and virtually all movement into or out of the area,” the email said. “Our description should be fact-based, referring to the end of permanent Israeli military presence on the ground.”
A CBC spokesperson confirmed the internal email’s legitimacy to Fox News Digital. The CBC characterized the protocol as similar to practices followed by other media outlets. Keep reading…..

They are terrorist, always have been and always will be.
We have THE sickest people in charge.
Joe Biden, Jake Sullivan, Tony Blinken, KJP, Clinton, Mayorkas, Monaco, “obama.”
They think by reading litanies of atrocities with an edge of anger in their voice that’s evidence of their authority, credibility and fealty. When it’s really only a threat to us that we’re next.
These people are THE PERPS! They’ve allowed millions of jihad butchers into our country!
Since the Coup of 2020 we are a conquered people and this illegitimate foreign occupation islamic administration is in control of the POW camp.
One of (I think) Kermit Schafer’s blooper albums had a cut ostensibly from CBC where the announcer spoonerized it as the “Canadian Broad-corping Castration.” And evidently they’re living up to that now – completely castrated by the jihad force (almost as much so as by the pervert/sodomite force).

“The Americans consider Hamas a terrorist organization. But we don’t agree, because they [represent] an integral part of Palestinian society,”

The CBC and the National Post. They don’t allow the word “Jihad” or “Jihadi” in their blogs……….It’s all about their “community standards…..”

Yes, this is Canada for you today. Morally it is bankrupt, a fraud that pretends it stands for right and decency.
Yesterday in the Toronto Sun – to its credit – I read of George Achi’s instruction to CBC journalists. We can absolutely bet that CTV will follow CBC’s shameful example, funded as they both are by Justin Trudeau’s subsidy and having thus surrendered their independence and integrity. One thing we now know with absolute certainty, George Achi is a vile piece of lying filth who does not care about civilized standards and CBC is a totally unreliable source for news. CBC supported Justin Trudeau when lying about the peacefully protesting truckers and now it wishes to diminish or conceal Muslim and Hamas savagery.

The news media ordering its reporters not to use the word “terrorist” is very strange. Another attempt to redefine words by not including what could be a common definition. As I understand it the more common definitions of the word “Hamas” are clearly synonyms of the word “terrorist”. So a likely definition of the word “Hamas” could be terrorist. How many people are aware that a definition of the Arabic word Hamas, which is the same word used in Hebrew, is terrorist?
