“Snuck in” is a very strange word to use for asylum seekers

💦👏🧴👏💦 damn. That’s really the closest you can get
How old have I become that the principal now looks young???
I have no idea if they decided to write the article in a biased way, but I don’t know if that matters. The people reading it still associate the article with “baseless claims,” which colors their view.
No, it’s the word choice in the sentence as a whole. “Baseless claims” and “categorically denied” make it seem like the article was nonsense. “Controversy” acknowledges that there are different accounts of what happened, but doesn’t pick a side and “denied” feels like the most neutral choice to me, but I’m a layperson and there are entire classes in journalism programs dedicated to neutral phrasing. Calling the article “insightful journalism” is obviously biased and saying “continues to deny” sounds even more supportive of the journalist’s claims, because it implies that people are continuously asking Israel about it, which further implies that multiple people are unsatisfied with Israel’s account of the events.
The article included baseless claims such as capturing soldiers in Jabaliya, which the IDF categorically denied.
This is a sentence from the article. If they were neutral towards the subject, they might have written it like this:
controversy surrounded the article, which described the IDF capturing soldiers in Jabaliya, something the Israeli government has denied.
If they were active supporters, it might have sounded like this:
his insightful journalistic work exposed the IDF’s capture of soldiers in Jabaliya, which they continue to deny.
I don’t pronounce that in my dialect, so I intentionally don’t write it in informal situations. The loss of American dialects in favor of TV English is a tragedy, in my opinion, so I try to keep mine alive :)
They better lower the retirement age for women as well, or they’re just stealing a year of women’s lives.
I read somewhere that Kim kardashian confirmed that he didn’t get this joke. I don’t care if it’s real, because it makes me very happy to imagine
That’s not on his Wikipedia page, but it accounts for the disconnect, thanks.
I just skimmed Jimmy Dore’s wikipedia… he seems politically relatively progressive, but personally selfish and slightly too open. Maybe I missed something, but supporting Bernie, thinking the democrat party is a shitshow, and saying that comedians’ jobs are easier under republican presidents doesn’t seem super far from “lefty,” though the Overton window is further right in the US.
Is it a different Jimmy dore or is there something else?
Also “morphing into”? Maybe I’m out of touch, but this is not new
Why the grudge?
I’m not clever enough to make an “old wives tales” joke here, but there’s definitely something there
Remember a few years ago when Connor mcgregor was going to fight Floyd mayweather? Those two native English speakers had entirely different theories about the word “boy.”
Just because some Arabic speakers use a different word for a different thing, does not mean that these Arabic speakers are. Imagine for a moment, that this is a horrible coincidence: what would you need to see to prove it to yourself?
The NYT is not credible regarding Israel. They’ve done very shoddy journalism there (with complete amateurs who don’t understand ethical journalism codes), but stand behind their work in a way that discredits them.
The day I discovered that I could make the Mac and cheese sauce and put it all over the kale I got from my farm share, was the day I stopped trying to pretend to be healthy.
I believe in you. Go ahead, make yourself a packaging paper bed
You see how a lack of scientific reporting on the subject makes it less likely that you find more examples, right?
