The Double Standard
Media Reactions to Zionist Terror
McIntyre and Hijab argue that Western media applies unequal standards to coverage of Israel and Palestine.
Written by journalist Jody McIntyre with Mohammed Hijab in the weeks after October 2023, The Double Standard examines how Western outlets covered the war in Gaza. The authors compare the language, framing, and sourcing applied to Israeli and Palestinian casualties and argue that a systematic double standard shapes public understanding of the conflict. The book is an advocacy work with a stated position, and it presents its media analysis through that lens, documenting specific broadcasts, headlines, and editorial choices.
