Reports have found that the claims in the paper’s “Screams Without Words” article are questionable, if not fabricated.

Dozens of tenured journalism professors at top schools across the U.S. have raised concerns that The New York Times is risking its own credibility, as well as the credibility of journalism at large, with its inaction on an article about sexual violence on October 7 that has come under scrutiny in recent months due to its reliance on questionable — and, in some cases, debunked — evidence.

The story, entitled “‘Screams Without Words’: Sexual Violence on Oct. 7,” was widely circulated after its publication in December and has been used by government officials and Zionist groups to supposedly justify Israel’s genocidal brutality against Palestinians in Gaza.

    I believe women even if it is politically inconvenient. If you can’t, then you should do better.

          And everyone with a brain knows (because facts) that not every story coming out of Israel - more specifically those stories backed by the IDF - are true.

            And not every story coming out of Gaza - more specifically those stories backed by Hamas - is true.

            Still, I believe accounts from both sides until shown actual evidence they are lying.

              But you don’t really. Because evidence was given here and you denied it.

                There is no actual evidence given here that Amit Soussana was lying. Just the usual anti-semitic accusations about not trusting Jews.

                  Nobody said she was lying. You assumed that (ass-u-me).

                  Stop letting your brain grab at straws and read the facts. You seem to be an adult so discipline your mind.

                    Someone upthread before you chimed in:

                    totally solidify in my mind that this person is at best lying
