AP Slammed for Biased Jerusalem Attack Headline

AP Slammed for Biased 
Jerusalem Attack Headline



JERUSALEM, Israel -- The Associated Press is facing some heat for its offensive headline following Thursday's terror attack in Jerusalem.

The AP's initial headline read, "Israeli Police Shoot Man in East Jerusalem," with no mention that police were responding to a terror attack.

The vehicular attack injured seven people and killed three month-old Chaya Zissel Braun, who held dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship.

After repeated complaints, AP changed the headline to "Car Slams Into East Jerusalem Train Station. And finally, AP acquiesed to complaints, changing it to "Palestinian Kills Baby at Jerusalem Station." But there are still calls for the wire service to identify who is responsible and to take action.

Meanwhile, the terrorist, Abdel Rahman Al-Shaludi, who ran over pedestrians waiting at a light-rail station, is being hailed as a martyr on Fatah's Facebook page.

Fatah is the party of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, who's been hailed as an iron-clad peace partner by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
