 Where is the genocide coverage in Chicago Sun Times and Chicago Tribune?

The horrific murder of 2 Jewish embassy workers in DC by a Chicago man received massive coverage in Chicago’s two dailies.

The Sun Times had a stark front page on the killing followed by 7 full pages of coverage. The Trib had a lengthy cover story spread over two pages and long editorial condemning it.

Understandable.

What is not understandable is that both papers almost completely ignore the ongoing US enabled genocide of 2,300,000 Palestinians in Gaza for all its 600 days.

When both do publish largely buried stories on the genocide, it’s referred to simply as a war on Hamas. The dozens, if not hundreds of Palestinians obliterated daily by US bombs dropped from US planes is rarely mentioned.

 There is no editorial pushback against US making the genocide possible with over $20 billion supplying over 50,000 tons of weaponry. No US weaponry…no genocidal ethnic cleansing campaign by Israel possible.

 Newspapers have critical public responsibility to inform readers of grotesque government policies that kill untold thousands and inflict starvation and denial of medical care upon millions of defenseless people being cleared from their homeland.

More importantly their public mission is to demand their government stop forthwith.

On both critical journalistic missions the Chicago Sun Times and Chicago Tribune are AWOL.
