US morning shows haven’t featured a single Palestinian guest: Report (copied and pasted from screenshot)
The Nation magazine says that three major US broadcasting networks did not have a single Palestinian guest appear on their morning news shows since October 2023.
Journalists Adam Johnson and Othman Ali kept a record of the guests on four different morning shows and found that no Palestinians appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press, ABC’s This Week, and CNN’s State of the Union.
The single exception was Face the Nation, on the CBS network, which aired a seven-minute interview with Husam Zomlot, the Palestinian ambassador to the United Kingdom, on November 5, 2023.
Across 208 episodes of the four shows, Gaza was mentioned 2,557 times, and Israeli guests were featured 20 times, the journalists found.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared as a guest on all four shows, and even appeared on CNN’s State of the Union twice.
