In a eerie re-run of 1999, when The Guardian turned on John Pilger for his expose of the Rambouillet Accords, the same newspaper reports that Carlton TV has disowned this brave journalist for his current report "Palestine is Still the Issue" shown last monday.
The Guardian of Friday Sept 20th states;
"Carlton Tv boss disowns Pilger documentary as unrealistic and unreliable
Michael Green, chairman of Carlton communications, has disowned a John Pilger documentary on the Palestinians, made and transmitted by his own company and condemned as one-sided by the Israeli embassy, the Board of Deputies of British Jews and Conservative Friends of Israel...
Mr Pilger said "This is happening because the film accurately and fairly spelt out the greta injustice which is being done to the Palestinian people and theis was made clear in the film by both Palestinians and Israelis"
