A screenshot of two New York Times headlines analyzed with red text to show their difference. One headline reads โIran says dozens are killed in strike on school.โ The red text highlights that the portion โIran saysโ casts doubt and โin strikeโ shows no responsible actor for the strike, as if it passively happened. The second headline reads โ9 Killed in Israeli City Near Jerusalem After Iranian Missile Strikeโ, the red text highlights โ9 Killedโ is stated as a fact, rather than โIsrael says 9 people were killedโ. The second highlighted text is โIranianโ as in this headline the actor is named.
We can play the headline game every time their imperialist wars start.
