The letters editor responded to my letter suggesting that The Echo appears to have an anti-Israel narrative, please prove my opinion wrong, and show me any articles or columns that the paper published in the past 40 years that were pro-Israel, since we all know that there have been countless articles that have been very anti-Israel over the 40 years. You say that you ‘continuously run letters with contested Israeli history’.
The pro-Israel/pro-peace letters that I have read have been fact-based so please also give me examples of what you classify as ‘contested history’.
Do you consider some of the vile anti-Israel letters and articles, where ‘facts’ are optional, supportive of harmony in our beautiful Northern Rivers community ?


For four decades The Echo has printed the stories some people loved, some people hated, and some pretended not to read. If you want us to keep telling the truth, the real truth, not the sugar-coated version. We’ll need your support to keep the presses rolling.
