Wait, we are claiming this some kind of intelligence community...but it's understandable that they can't even figure out if this guy works for al Jazeera? You'll have to help me square this.
But my claim is that the statement is false, not that they intentionally misled, so even if they were understandably confused, that still seems to be untrue.
I have no need to rush to a conclusion on this. I'm just reporting what one of your links said. In your attempt to rush to a conclusion, you already were convinced of a falsehood. Maybe you should slow down too.
I can't help but read your points as attempting to paint al Jazeera as some bad guy in this whole thing. How long ago was this tweet that is from some group that you claim is 10 hours ahead of the news? And we're being critical of al Jazeera for not rushing out an article in that time?
But it isn't inaccurate, that's the thing. The Twitter post says, "a Photojournalist and Writer/Editor for both Al-Jazeera and the Palestinian Chronicle." That is factually true..
The group is a discord channel for people in the intelligence sector, I don't know what you need squared about that. Take it for what it is, an early alert gossip mill by people who hear things before most other people do.
I haven't rushed to any conclusions, I've been sharing news articles as they come out.
Whether you pay them or not, posting articles from potential terrorists isn't a good look. The same can be said about any media group associating with terrorists, the same happened with CNN, NY Times, and Associated Press on October 7th.
Not sure why you're asking me when something was posted when I shared the link to it, that's just lazy. I never criticized Al-Jazeera for not publishing a response, I simply stated that they haven't, and my response about that was even understanding that not much time has passed?
I think you're the one rushing to conclusions and should slow down.
