1.  In his report, Yarden Frankl explains that HonestReporting typically focuses on how Israel is covered in the news sections of the mainstream media, but opinion pages also greatly influence perceptions of Israel.  What do you think:  Is there an obligation for an influential news organization like the New York Times to publish pieces representing both sides of controversial issues?  Explain your answer.

2.  Mr. Frankl also asserts:  "If readers are being flooded with articles that combine conclusions and style in a sharply critical anti-Israel thrust, there is no question that they will walk away with a warped view of the conflict."  Do you think Mr. Frankl is correct?  Explain your answer.

3.  Mr. Frankl concludes by saying:  "We do not call for the New York Times to refrain from publishing opinion articles critical of Israel. But we do call for them to recognize their journalistic obligations and provide readers with legitimate views from all sides, including those that support Israeli policies."  Do you agree or disagree?  Explain your answer.
