Not-So-Shocking Report Finds Huff Po Spreading Anti-Semitic Hate....
The Huffington Post is serving as an Internet meeting place for the spread of anti-Semitic and anti-Israel propaganda, including wild conspiracy theories and vicious slurs, according to a new report.
The Committee for Middle East Reporting in America, or CAMERA, monitored the Huffington Post for a brief period in March and May, finding the talkback threads that accompany the site's news articles and opinion columns routinely contained an alarming amount of hate material.
The report said that while such talkbacks can also be found at other sites, such as Britain's Guardian and the Independent newspaper websites, CAMERA focused on the Huffington Post "due to its large audience and because of the steady volume of hostile sentiment directed towards the Jewish state and its supporters."
CAMERA found the overwhelming majority of talkbacks it monitored on Jewish or Israel-related material at the Huffington Post contained anti-Israel propaganda, including easily disprovable lies.
The report found a popular theme on site was the steady repetition of conspiracy theories claiming excessive Jewish influence in America.
