The British Broadcasting Corp. (BBC) publicized last week’s bulldozer terrorist attack in Jerusalem with the headline “Tractor driver shot in Jerusalem,” the media watchdog Honest Reporting website reported. The headline eventually was changed to “New digger attack in Jerusalem,” but the lead of the article simply stated that the driver was shot dead by police. In the second paragraph, the BBC told its readers, “Israeli police say they are treating it as a terrorist attack.”

The BBC has a history of similar bias against Israel, particularly concerning bulldozer and tractor terrorists. Honest Reporting noted that it initially headlined last July’s bulldozer attack with “Israel bulldozer driver shot dead" until it was changed later.
