“Double standard” – Report shows media and human rights groups focused far more on Israel’s war with Hamas than on Iran’s massacre of dissident protesters earlier this year.

News media outlets dedicated significantly more coverage to Israel’s war in the Gaza Strip than to the anti-regime protests in Iran and the subsequent massacre of dissidents by pro-regime forces, a new study has found, while human rights activists largely ignored the atrocities in Iran, in comparison with the number of demonstrations held against the war in Gaza.

On Thursday, the Jewish People Policy Institute published a report documenting the volume of media coverage of the war in Gaza compared to coverage of the protests and subsequent crackdown in Iran.
