One does not have to look hard to find anti-Israel bias in the wire services. In fact, once you know about the anti-Israel memes that the media uses, one has to look hard to avoid biased news articles.

Here is a case in point, from AFP. Just the first paragraph has enough bias and distortion to keep us busy for a while:

This past Sunday, Al-Jazeera and the Guardian started releasing the so-called “Palestine Papers,” a huge compendium of memos and other documents written by the Palestinian Arab side documenting the peace negotiations with Israel.

They are not simply publishing the memos, however. They are releasing them in conjunction with articles that interpret the memos for the readers, and highlight the sections that they believe are important.
