Just another day at the office for NBC News, folks. On Thursday, Tablet magazine writer Yair Rosenberg caught NBC News correspondents Ayman Mohyeldin and Cal Perry publishing a error-laden piece on NBCNews.com about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that was later rewritten without a correction.
Rosenberg’s first tweet about the article noticed a blatant error concerning where Israel currently has settlements and threats by Secretary of State John Kerry that peace with the Palestinians would be in jeopardy if Israel didn’t withdraw:
A basic Google search for Israel accompanied by keywords like “withdraws” and/or “Gaza” would yield an understanding that Israel uprooted over 8,000 of its own citizens from the Gaza Strip over a decade ago in 2005.
