The New York Times Lives on Top of My Stolen Home in Jerusalem

Successive New York Times bureau chiefs have literally lived on top of Dr. Ghada Karmi’s family home in Jerusalem — the home her family was ethnically cleansed from in 1948.

In this clip, Ghada Karmi explains how she discovered that the NYT had built on top of her house, what happened when she visited, and what this says about the corporate media’s relationship to Palestinian dispossession — not just in their coverage, but in their everyday lives.
