The media monitoring company that issues “trust scores” to news outlets says it still doesn’t have enough information to conclude that terrorists are to blame for the deadly blast at a Gaza hospital — although all available evidence has led U.S. intelligence to declare with “high confidence” that this is the case.
In a Thursday email to The Daily Wire, a NewsGuard senior analyst called into question commentary by Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro pinning the blame on Palestinian terrorists.
“There have been enough conflicting accounts that, in NewsGuard’s view, we still don’t know enough to pin the blame definitively on [Palestinian Islamic Jihad],” wrote Valerie Pavilonis of NewsGuard, which has received nearly a million dollars from the federal government for its services.
