(Jewish News) The Guardian has admitted “collective failure” led to the publication of a review of a Channel 4 documentary about 7 October that criticised the negative portrayal of Hamas terrorists.
A statement to Jewish News on Tuesday morning: “A review of One Day in October, a documentary shown on Channel 4 about the Hamas massacre at the Be’eri kibbutz, was published on 10 October 2024 (G2, p10). The Guardian considers the article did convey the harrowing footage and powerful survivor interviews and condemned the attack’s perpetrators. But the unacceptable terms in which it went on to criticise the documentary were inconsistent with our editorial standards. This was a collective failure of process and we apologise for any offence caused. The article has been removed from our website.”
