You’re an extreme ignoramus. The Forward runs stories about that kind of thing all the time.

Let’s listen to the guy who calls himself a “liberal Zionist” on this one ya’ll. We got an unbiased perspective in the house.

The Forward runs many great articles from a wide range of perspectives, including by and about Palestinians.

Example: The op-eds here — https://forward.com/authors/muhammad-shehada/

Implying that The Forward never tries to present the Palestinian perspective is like implying that Haaretz doesn’t try to present the Palestinian perspective and that Al Jazeera doesn’t try to present the Jewish or Israeli perspectives.

Those are publications where people make heroic efforts to show the world how it is as well as they can. If folks want to look at how they fall short of their ideals and still end up being biased, great. But to imply that any of these three publications isn’t making an effort to present “the other side” reflects a lack of familiarity with those publications.

Al Jazeera has been blindly promoting Qatar as a tourist destination and the World Cup in general while completely ignoring all the human rights violations that have and continue to occur there so I guess you could say they probably do have a lot in common with Forward as a publication!
