A prominent academic has accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza while alleging that New York state taxpayer funds are being used to support what he describes as war crimes. The claim stems from a comparison of 14 news outlets, suggesting a pattern of reporting—or silence—on the issue. Critics argue that financial contributions from U.S. states may indirectly enable military actions under scrutiny. The controversy raises questions about media accountability and public funding of foreign conflicts.
