Al Jazeera host denounces media calling Hamas a terrorist group 'even if you think' Oct. 7 was terrorism
Fox News
Al Jazeera's Marc Lamont Hill took the media to task for calling Hamas a terrorist organization, suggesting it's an excuse for news outlets to delegitimize the group.
Last week, Hill appeared on Briahna Joy Gray's "Bad Faith" podcast after he hosted a Hamas spokesperson on his Al Jazeera English (AJE) program "UpFront." Brian Flood is a media editor/reporter for FOX News Digital. Story tips can be sent to brian.flood@fox.com and on Twitter: @briansflood.
Hill suggested Hamas would be willing to speak with other news organizations but that the media refuses to do so because of the group's terrorist status.
"I’m not convinced that they’re unwilling to talk to these other networks. It seems to me that other corporate media outlets have made the decision that they don’t want to be in conversation with them, and part of why is because they’ve decided to frame them as a terrorist network," Hill said.
