Honest Reporting exploded in the headlines over the past 24 hours when it exposed problematic conduct by photographers and journalists who worked for major media outlets in the United States and accompanied Hamas terrorists on their murder, rape and abduction spree throughout the Gaza envelope in the October 7th massacre.
The exposure made waves around the world, and a CNN cameraman had already been fired from his position as a result of the revelation, and the organization's name was broadcast around the world. Despite its relative anonymity in Israel, this is not the first significant exposure by Hunst Reporting, a veteran organization in the field of combating media bias against Israel.

The organization and website were founded by Jewish students from the United Kingdom and the United States in 2000. The organization's first exposure was a picture of a wounded child next to an Israeli soldier described by The New York Times, one of the richest media outlets with the world's greatest journalistic integrity ethos, as a Palestinian child wounded by IDF soldiers. An exposure that made waves in the US media.
By 2003, the organization's mailing list stood at 150,<> and the organization opened a branch in Canada. The organization's stated goal, according to its website, is: "We embrace the principled idea that a healthy democratic society needs a well-informed and correct civic body. Accordingly, our mission is to ensure truth, integrity and fairness and to combat ideological prejudice in the media, in a manner related to the State of Israel."
In recent years, the organization has had several notable successes, such as the exposure of a CNN producer who wrote in praise of the Hamas terrorist organization and the Nazi enemy Adolf Hitler. The man was dismissed from his position. In addition, the organization revealed that award-winning journalist Shata Hamad wrote on Twitter that she was a "friend of Adolf Hitler" and, using the nickname "Hitler," wrote posts against Israel's right to exist.
