Jeff Cohen presents “Facts on the Ground: What I Saw in the West Bank & What You Don’t See in the U.S. Media”Contributed by Beth Harris on 10/06/13
Jeff’s delegation, sponsored by the Interfaith Peace-Builders, met with a wide variety of Israelis and Palestinians, including those featured in My Neighborhood. The event will also serve as a send-off for Ithacan Ariel Gold, who will be participating in the Interfaith Peace-Builders’ Olive Harvest delegation this month. As a former pundit on CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC, founder of the media watch group FAIR, and co-founder of RootsAction.org, Jeff provides an important perspective concerning media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This event, which is free and open to the public, is co-sponsored by the Unitarian Social Justice Council, Jewish Voice for Peace, Tikkun v’Or Social Justice Workgroup, Dorothy Cotton Institute, and Catholic Workers of Ithaca.
