Former State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus spoke with Fox News Digital about the national security implications of the media's botched reporting of the Gaza hospital explosion.
The legacy media's widely panned coverage of last week's Gaza hospital exposition has had a ripple effect across the world that goes beyond the usual ramifications of a journalistic error. Several news organizations from The New York Times, to CNN, to the BBC, to the Associated Press rushed to report claims made by the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry that Israel bombed Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital through an airstrike resulting in over 500 civilian casualties.
That in turn requires the military to scramble to send more reinforcements to the embassies. And, if the riots get worse, we will have to evacuate,' Ortagus said. 'It is enormously expensive and requires us to divert forces from other theaters, like Asia, to deal with the emergency situation created from actual fake news.' Hamas' narrative was debunked by evidence brought forth by the IDF and intelligence from the Biden administration.
