A real reporter should mention that Israel only withheld the percentage of tax transfers that was going to support salaries to terrorists and their families. The PA has refused to accept the rest of it = >90%. to blame Israel for Pals losing salaries is untrue, @NTarnopolsky https://t.co/OR9pXX6K1x— Elder Of Ziyon ҉ (@elderofziyon) May 27, 2019
Without responding to me, she tried to make fun of me, to which I responded.
I wrote a short thread in response:
Hilarious! "Reporter" @NTarnopolsky couldn't respond to a simple point I made, trolls me while accusing me of being a troll, and when she is called out on it - she blocks me.I write more articles, do more research and am more transparent in my writing than 90% of the reporters out there. (Psrt time!)
I do this BECAUSE I am anonymous - I WANT people to check my work. And I correct my errors.But when someone outside the "club" dares to point out how the professionals are wrong, many of them just can't deal with it. They want to be considered authorities, not questioned but believed because of their name.
Sorry, not my style.There are many good reporters. They welcome corrections, or they engage in discussion without insulting the person who bring up criticism.
Then there are ego-driven hacks like Noga, who simply cannot support her own reporting and therefore wants to shut down the critics.Maybe I shouldn't have insulted her in my first tweet, but her blaming Israel for Palestinian refusal to accept cash from Israel was risible to begin with. It was not educating her followers, which is what a reporter should do - it was hiding the basic facts. It was propaganda, not news.
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
